One can only wonder how much of this has been going on before they got caught.

To paraphase publisher Katherine Wemouth’s ridiculous mea culpa:

“I’m ‘a Madame’, not a Madam. And this was to look like ‘a salon’, not a brothel.”

They might as well change their name to Government Media, this to go along with the new trend: Government Motors, Government Medical, etc.

I bet she is still going to do it; if she hasn’t already.

Obama and Co are worse liars than Bill and Hillary if you can believe that. They should be known as the “Liars Campaign”.

Isn’t “Influence Peddling” a crime in the United States? A form of Racketeering? If so, what are its parameters? If not, shouldn’t it be?

Washington Post publisher apologizes for plan to hold paid dinners with officials, journalists

Translation:

All meetings between Obama officials and "news" media and lobbyists will continue to remain clandestine, or...ahem..."under-the-table" from now on.

Too late. The Washington Post violated the Lobbyist Disclosure Act of 1995. They offered lobbyist contacts with high ranking White House officials that totaled over $6,000 and they weren’t registered to do so.

I seem to remember George will having such a dinner in January and inviting Obama and others to it. Didn’t the Post already have such dinners last year. This idea has been floated before.

Not accepted. She’s only apologizing because she got caught. WaPO has been doing this since before Katherine Graham was in charge.

Well, the apology was made. Liberals say sorry, and now it is time to move on. Over. Finished. Never bring it up again. This is history. Any attempt to resurrect it from now on will be portrayed as the behavior of vengeful hatemongers.

Now, if liberals continually bring up the sins of a conservative, well, that is okay.

If it looks like a bribe, sounds like a bribe, smells like a bribe...

The Post has graduated from being a government hooker to being its pimp.

"I want to apologize for a planned new venture that went off track and for any cause we may have given you to doubt our independence and integrity," Publisher Katharine Weymouth said in a letter that appeared in the newspaper's op-ed section Sunday.

Honey, we doubted your independence and integrity well before any official flyer went out announcing it.
