The Washington Post donated $100,000 to **'s unauguration.

Maybe they didn't qualify for press passes anymore.

1. Liberal media, my @ss

I know the WashPost panders to power, but this is utterly sickening.

7. I didn't know that.

I was just sort of shocked to see their name on the list of major donors.

Thanks for setting me straight.

5. I can't get over how many are individuals

If I had an extra $10 or $15K, I certainly wouldn't give it to *.

9. They would have donated 100K if Kerry had been elected too

And I'm pretty sure these "donation" (cough cough) are tax deductable as a business expense.
