Axed Washington Post reporters dug their own graves

 

Over the past decade, The Washington Post has been one of the leading culprits in the collapse of public trust in journalism.

 

The once-venerable outlet has spent the past 10 years participating in virtually every dishonest left-wing operation, including giving legitimacy to the Brett Kavanaugh group rape accusations, delegitimizing the Hunter Biden laptop story, spreading the Gaza “genocide” lie, covering up Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, sliming the Covington children and countless others.

You could write a book listing WaPo pieces that were so biased as to be basically fictional.

The paper has also been one of the worst offenders of the unsound journalistic practice in which reporters hand-pick useful partisan “experts” or “scholars” to act as opinion-writing proxies.


To understand the activist mission of the Post, note that it fired 13 climate-change reporters and one reporter whose only job was covering “race disparity” this week.

 

Let’s not forget, either, that the contemporary “fact-checking” ruse, wherein left-wing opinion columnists playact as arbiters of truth and offer partisan arguments and value judgments under a patina of impartiality, was basically invented by the Post.
