Washington Post Adds ‘Clarification’ Noting That Ned Price is Clinton Donor
Washington Free Beacon ^ | February 23, 2017 | Brent Scher

Posted on 02/24/2017 4:52:00 AM PST by kevcol

The Washington Post has added a "clarification" to the top of a column written by former CIA employee Ned Price to note that he made political contributions to Hillary Clinton, a fact that was first reported by the Washington Free Beacon earlier this week.

Price wrote in his Sunday column that he had decided to quit the CIA and that his decision "had nothing to do with politics." Not noted by the Washington Post at the time was that Price is both a registered Democrat and gave $5,000 to Hillary Clinton's failed effort to defeat Trump.

WaPo's new motto, "Democracy Dies in Darkness". I guess throwing a little light on the fact this CIA guy was a Clinton supporter wasn't important... to the narrative.

How does this story make sense to any logical human being. I am not leaving because of politics... but, I am leaving because of Trump. Am I the only one who sees that as politics.

I never thought I would leave the CIA.... but, now I am at retirement age, got a pension, and am young enough to capitalize on my career outside the government without signing Trumps pledge to not lobby and to not work for foreign governments.

I never thought I would leave the CIA... but, if they are going to look into our statements and actions for the past 8 years, I don’t want to be around for that investigation.

Am I being too critical here? Am I a nutty conspiracy theorist.
