Is the WaPo a reliable source?

[Jackpine Radical]

Is it up to the standards of the National Enquirer or Raw Story? Is it as trustworthy as Capital Hill Blue?

1. Not with Woodward, there

He's on the Bush payroll.

4. Would that be more or less reliable than the Judy Miller Times?

2. No...None of them are

3. Raw Story is usually correct...

Seems like a good standard to aspire to.

6. I agree about RS. They've made mistakes, but who hasn't?

The NYT & WaPo are propaganda organs. I wasn't kidding when I compared them unfavorably to the Enquirer.

5. Sometimes.

But as with any source, it's necessary to corroborate the information.

7. I resent the question.

I know for a fact that they have NEVER gotten the NFL football and MLS soccer scores wrong. NOT ONCE! For you to question their standards and trustworthy-ness is unpatriotic, treasonous and just plain wrong.

Do you know how many hard-working sports editors, sports writers, copy editors, line checkers, proof-readers, designers and stat-checkers you just insulted in the sports department? Have you no sense of regret for even asking your insulting question? For shame.
The WashPoo is a sports BIBLE, inerrant, trustworthy, believable.

Now, when you bring up their ability to report on things within, as I have seen it, the Bloatway, well, that is another can of worms. So long that Woodward continues to stalk the halls, so long that the WashPoo continues to play lapdog to the WhiteHouse, it will not be believable.

8. Hardly

They are a propaganda wing for PNAC.

[Jackpine Radical]

9. Boy, THAT's the truth.

Except for Pincus of the Post. He's a CIA conduit.
