Finally canceled my Washington Post subscription

Edited on Tue Jul-22-08 01:39 PM by Stoic
I've been getting it for 25 years along with the Baltimore Sun. It's been primarily inertia that's kept me from from quitting up to now. That and a vague memory of when I used to scan both papers cover to cover daily. When you can no longer trust the news division to report honestly, it's time to give up and it's been years since I could say that about the Post.

I wish I knew of a decent daily paper that still had some integrity. I'd get a subscription through the mail in a second but not even the NY Times, with it's blatant war mongering and lying weasel editors can make that cut.

I grew up in Chicago, lived in L.A. and now in Maryland and was a reliable reader of their dailies. Right Wing owners have systematically destroyed each paper in turn. Of course, I'm only a Dirty Fucking Hippie™ so I don't matter.
