Oh brother. The Washington Post was apparently planning to sell access to top Obama officials and other VIPs, at a price of $25,000 to $250,000 a pop, in a “salon program” at the private home of CEO Katharine Weymouth. The Washington Post has long prided itself on its access ...
This is really bad. When both the New York Times and the Washington Post publish a cartoon that belongs in a Nazi-era tabloid, we’ve crossed the line into very dangerous territory. These newspapers should publish an apology for this absolutely outrageous cartoon. But I know they won’t.

An editorial in the Washington Post springs to the defense of former PLO spokesman Rashid Khalidi, dismissing Khalidi’s radicalism and ridiculing the McCain campaign for mentioning Barack Obama’s long association with him: An ‘Idiot Wind’.

By picking Sarah Palin, it looks like John McCain has lost the Washington Post’s Richard Cohen: The Ugly New McCain. What impressed me most about McCain was the effect he had on his audiences, particularly young people. When he talked about service to a cause greater than oneself, he ...

The Washington Post “Fact Checker” has been going very easy on Barack Obama, but today they’re actually asking the pertinent question about Obama’s “Auschwitz” tale: Where in the world is Auschwitz? - Fact Checker.

America’s most disgusting terrorist-hugging former president is published by America’s most disgusting Islamist mouthpiece, “On Faith,” with a truly vile little piece: On Faith: Guest Voices: Presidents Should Not Be Liars.

At Huffington Post, of all places, an excellent article by Sam Harris on Western media’s self-censorship in the face of radical Islamic intimidation: Losing Our Spines to Save Our Necks.

Washington Post writer Sally Quinn is one of the people behind the Post/Newsweek’s ludicrous “On Faith” project, which, as we’ve documented many times, has been a welcoming forum for antisemites, Holocaust deniers, radical Islamists and radical leftists—promoted as “interfaith dialog.” Ms Quinn appeared on the Charlie Rose show Wednesday night, ...

Another unrepentant, genocidal terrorist is given op-ed column space in the Washington Post. This time it’s Hamas thug Mahmoud al-Zahar: Mahmoud al-Zahar - No Peace Without Hamas.
