Sorry if it is Wapo. Other sources are out on this and they all quote Wapo. Some of these outfits have fairly good news stories in spite of their editorial stances.

If the WP was involved in this article then I would not trust a word of what is written. No point in me even reading it. Misleading people on stuff like this is what the WP is all about.

Have it your way, Fox quoted a WP article this past week. Maybe you should skip reading any Fox news articles and watching any Fox shows as well. That’s the ticket.

By the way, I think some of the stories mention in turn, they got some of the info from the Spanish press:

From the article

But in recent days, rumours have swirled about the motivations behind the attack in the Spanish media, including a report in El País alleging that two of the masked assailants have ties to the CIA.

So, that settles that, it has been in the press, Spanish press.

The WP is above all others in lies and Propaganda. Even CNN and the NYT’s cannot top them. There entire purpose of existence is to lie and deceive.

You’ve got to know where they are biased and where they may be reporting factually. Not every detail in the Mainstream Media is a lie ... although I like to call them “Pathological Liars” ... LOL ...

Unbiased news is a myth. It goes against human nature.
