WASHINGTON—Saying that despite recent events, it would do everything in its power to continue obscuring the truth, The Washington Post published an editorial Thursday defending the FBI’s recent raid on its reporter.
“As journalists, we stand united behind the U.S. government’s decision to investigate our colleague Hannah Natanson, search her home, and seize several of her electronic devices,” read the piece, which was signed by the famed newspaper’s editorial board and outlined the many ways in which Natanson deserved to be punished for doing her job conducting investigative reporting into the Trump administration.
“The Washington Post has a long history of groundbreaking journalism, and we invite FBI director Kash Patel to raid, arrest, or jail anyone involved with such efforts. In the United States, federal agents are born with certain unalienable rights.
We cannot in good conscience allow our reporters to infringe upon that freedom.” At press time, the famed newspaper’s readership had reportedly skyrocketed after the editorial board called on President Donald Trump to publicly execute its entire staff.
Omg I thought this was real bc it’s so believable. The Onion strikes again!
crunch crunch crunch
Damnit
I still believe this headline even after seeing the community it’s in.
I ate the onion bigtime on this one.
99% chance this one ends up being true.
If this was worded differently I would not disbelieve it was real. The washington post has never been all that good in our lifetimes though, I can’t think of much post watergate they’ve done, they broke few big stories.
The NYTimes had broken a lot though, warrantless systematic government spying, eavesdropping, all sorts of stuff like that. Not this term though, they gave up. I think Israel broke their brain. Both psychologically, and their editor and owners are probably on tapes held by israeli intelligence fucking children with epstein, that would explain a lot.
Israel just upping their demands from supporting them no matter what to laying down for the fascist takeover. They have to date been rather worthless, prove me wrong nytimes. We will see what the WaPo ends up doing, more next to nothing I presume though, and I presume this story they were raided over wasn’t groundbreaking either just mildly embarrassing.
No one is digging up evidence of the bribes we know the administration is taking, of kickbacks, on everything, to personal accounts disguised by their greasy lawyers and their networks with shell companies and sham investments and off shore accounts.
The Washington Post, owned by Billionaire boot-licker, Jeff Bezos…
FTFY
Bezos isn’t a bootlicker. WaPo is a commodity and he’s more than happy to shove it into the woodchipper if the pellets that come out are worth more than what he put in. He’s been profitably trading on his WaPo investment in exactly this way since he bought it.
Bezos has outsourced the bootlicking to a third party. If WaPo exists to do anything, its to lick his boots while others watch. And, occasionally, he farms them out for a handsome ROI to lick the boots of others desperate for the attention.
Flinging an investigative journalist under the bus is just one more way to trade on WaPo’s credibility for his personal gain.
