read the wash times and tell me if you see any moonie influence

I look at the Washington Times on occasion. I've even posted a few articles from them. It's not a great paper. They are losing money year over year. They should consider laying off some people if they can't turn a profit.

As far as Moonie influence. I'm not well versed in the Moonie religion, perhaps you are. I do know that the Rev. Moon was pushing for the, as he put it, the reunification of the 3 Israels, i,e., Israel, the West Bank and Gaza. The Washington Times supported that view.

the NY times just laid off 500 people, the Baltimore sun just laid off 25% of it's news staff.

Perhaps you're not familiar with the term "profit". The NY Times has actually taken market share from the Boston Globe and in fact the Times circulation was up marginally. The Baltimore Sun is largely a local newspaper. At least that's the only reason I look at it.

Times staff have broken more stories in DC in the last 10 years then the Post. Like 10-1.

To the best of my knowledge there are no statistics available on "breaking stories". I gather this falls into the category of your made up judge and the Washington Times is the fastest growing newspaper in the US. Made up stuff.

Let's take a look at circulation...

New York Times: ~1.7 million
Washington Post: ~1 million
Washington Times: ?

Go ahead, what's the Washington Times circulation? I know it's not in the top 20.
