The Washington Times and the Washington Redskins announced a unique partnership that will make the newspaper a content and marketing partner of the team.
Under the partnership, the Redskins and the Times will collaborate on unique content offerings throughout the year designed to provide Redskins fans with compelling, timely and unique coverage.
The offerings will include a weekly Redskins Weekend Game Guide, which will wrap the front page of the Times print edition each Friday during the NFL season and a new free digital magazine called The Redskins Report, which will showcase exclusive content about the Redskins. Both features are expected to launch in August.
In addition, Times sports reporters, such as Thom Loverro and Zac Boyer, will provide commentary and analysis on selected Redskins radio and TV shows and also appear on the teams online pregame show and the halftime shows. The halftime show also appears on FedExFields HD video boards during halftime.
The team will provide the Times with commentaries and access to players, coaches and front office personnel that will be incorporated into the Times weekly guides, digital magazine and special sections.

For Redskins fans, it a religion..........................
the Redskins should require authorization to print a story about their team
then deny access to the WashPo
WashTimes would have a huge spike in sales, and the WashPo would take a shot to the nuts for messing with them
I honestly don’t know if they dropped it but if so they’ve brought it back, they’re covering all sports.
interesting
One of the comments after the article says that WaPo has been censoring the Redskins name, if true and they continue to do it it’ll cost them with this new coverage by the WT.
The Washington Post decision to not use “Redskins” is working out great, for the Washington Times.
Yep, I love it. :-)
Thanks for the ping to good Redskin news.
Eagles bump
