WaPo Changes Trump’s SOTU Headline After Liberals Freak Out

The Washington Post changed its front page headline for President Donald Trump’s first State of the Union address Tuesday evening after liberals erupted in anger. The paper tweeted roughly one hour before Trump’s speech a picture of the Wednesday edition, featuring a frontpage headline that read, “A call for bipartisanship.” Readers responded with vitriol, calling out the newspaper for printing a headline it “will regret tomorrow,” along with a host of other negative comments.

I like the second better. Sounds historically Presidential. :)

[ding_dong_daddy_from_dumas]

Yeah, remember George Carlin (sometimes nutty and sometimes profound): “Bipartisan usually means that a larger-than-usual deception is being carried out.”

The comPost: slave to its ideology.

This is just too funny. Even if these libtard media outlets want to report more fair news, they’ve gotten their libtard base so fired up and filled with hate, they can’t, LOL.

The more we MAGA, the more the enemedia has created a powderkeg for itself.

Thanks for posting - a very good catch!

I just finished watching the C-SPAN version of the SOTU just now. Sorry, couldn't drag myself out of the bed at 3 a.m. over here.

I think Mr. Trump hit it outta the park! Today there must be a rush to buy cans of “butt hurt salve” and lots of ‘sploding liberal heads.

I was concerned that the Democrats sat most of the speech but then I remembered that their symbol is the Donkey. So, I guess, it is natural to sit on your ass.

Loved George Carlin, but never caught that line, so I’m glad you’ve shared it. The truth of that line makes it the classic “laughing at things we hate, but are forced to endure”. RIP George.

The photo subtly changed too.

Trump doesn’t look so angry in the second photo.

He looks more reasonable.

What’s up with the Postule?

[dan on the right]

What??

Why would they have the headline and an article written one hour BEFORE the speech? Only snippets were distributed before the speech began.

I guess this is the high quality WoPo at work. “Let’s guess what he is going to say based on punditry and leaks and run with that.”

[jerod]

Or, as Trump refers to it... Fake News... Nobody is better at it than the Washington ComPost.

[Zeppo]

America-hating leftists (and aren’t all leftists ‘America-hating’?) will despise the second headline as well.

[drop 50 and fire for effect]

At the risk of inadvertently defending the Post, a paper I generally detest, this was a scheduled event.

I would assume that they had the space reserved and an article outlined prior to the speech. Once the speech is over, flesh it out and fill in the blanks.

They'll probably do the same with the Super Bowl. Have [Team Name] win! as a templated headline.

In and of itself, this is not a bad thing. Rather it is the statist/leftist bias that the Post and the rest of the MSM constantly displays that bothers me.

the FakeNewsMSM created this insane, phony PC monster, providing them with oxygen at every opportunity, and now they are being targeted? karma.

29 Jan: Washington Free Beacon: Liberals Brand NY Times a ‘White Supremacist Paper’ for Op-Ed Defending Stephen Miller
by Alex Griswold
Not for the first time over the past year, the New York Times faced backlash from liberal readers after a Saturday op-ed argued White House senior adviser Stephen Miller should be involved in negotiations to strike an immigration deal...

The White House adviser, who was raised in a Jewish family, has since said he has “absolutely no relationship” with Spencer and that he “completely repudiate[s] his views.”
Nevertheless, many of the critics charged that the Time‘s decision to publish the piece defending the so-called “white nationalist” Miller on Holocaust Memorial Day was offensive, and they called for readers to cancel their subscriptions.

As an aside, this year is the 200th anniversary of the publication of Frankenstein, the best novel ever written by a teenager.
