They are liberal and no better than the NYT in objectivity, perhaps a shade better than the LAT.

I think they're moderate. The Wash Post is an excellent journalistic organization with well balanced coverage.

The Washington Post is a very moderate newspaper with an excellent journalistic record on a par with The Christian Science Monitor, The Guardian, Le Monde and The Scotsman.

The Washington Post is like the New York Times clearly a liberal paper. The Post like the Times has very good writers and interesting stories. Their spin of the stories like the NYT and NPR for that matter is clearly liberal.

Their investigative journalism is 2nd to none, being the paper that has broken many fine stories like the current Walter Reed Scandal and Watergate -

Unlike the Washington Times, for example, a Right wing rag funded by Moonies at a loss - the newspaper equivlant of Fox News in Washington -

How does this have anything to do with the OP or the discussion at hand? I dare you to go more than 2 politics posts without (subconsciously perhaps?) spouting pointless, off-topic, ultra liberal rhetoric.
