WAPO speedy app loads
     
by ADK state of things · July 9, 2026

The app loads quickly. It does not lave a large foot print of space on the HD. Two great features.

The Post is Truth
     
by fedecura · July 8, 2026

Reading the work of professional journalists at The Washington Post reveals a dedication to the truth, reveals moral courage, reveals the true legacy of our nation’s founding fathers. It’s the perfect antidote to so much republican dishonesty & so little moral courage from right-wing politicians pundits judges.

The WPost: Just the Best > Writing- Reporting- Coverage
     
by Thebobm · July 10, 2026

I’m not a Big Reader. But I read the WashPost most every morning (online)…I’m a News/Feature Page skimmer, with Sports News Rising. I’ve lived in over 6 States (not witness protection) and the WaPo is Just the Best. —Not in Witness Protection, but thinking about it.

Resubscribing

I am going to try and post again after a long hiatus. I have seen some articles on Facebook and I don’t know if I can completely write them off.

One reason above all others to leave!
     
by ajgroiehryg · July 3, 2026

The WP Editorial Eoard is a tool to advance your owner’s style of “ elitist capitalism.” I love, capitalism, but I can’t stand greed! This paper has changed drastically since your owner has taken over. There are a lot of publications through which I can get accurate, unbiased news. I’ll be gone very soon.

WaPo is center right now and an apologist for plutocrats and economic inequality
     
by Nequaine · July 10, 2026

WaPo is center right now and an apologist for plutocrats and economic inequality. They got rid of most of their liberal writers and dropped their sports coverage. They still do some decent investigative stories.

Great Journalism
     
by TMJonesy · July 7, 2026

While I’m not a fan of Bezos, the journalists at the WaPo are independent and do the hard work of reporting facts. Well worth the money considering how easy it is to come across garbage being published online these days. By far my favorite paper!
