"The Washington Post has steadily evolved from being a newspaper edited and written by journalists to being something else. Sean Hannity has said that journalism is dead in America, and so I would think he would say that it is written by dead journalists.
"I would agree with that except that dead journalists cannot write. So what has the newspaper’s staff evolved into? Propagandists? Possibly. Advertising hacks? That takes talent.
"I think this weekend I hit upon precisely what The Washington Post has evolved into. It is the newspaper of the American Federation of Teachers. It is a newspaper edited and written by schoolmarms. It is intent on teaching its childlike readership something elevated every time its writers are let loose on a topic." . . .
