Remember when the Washington Post was a bastion of integrity and honest journalism? Nah. I don’t.

The Washington Post employs Glenn Kessler as a fact-checker. He flags everything he disagrees with, and massages whatever it is to give a fact-check approval for Democrats then four Pinocchios to all things Republican. Before hearings started on Hunter’s apparent connections to his dad and pay-for-play corruption, Kessler was like a 320 lb.-pulling guard running interference for the Biden family

….Kessler mounted his mighty steed and launched a 2,000-word “fact-check” in which he defended Hunter Biden’s email on Burisma as nothing more than Hunter Biden doing some deep-deep research on his subject matter, pulling information from multiple news sources. Kessler began his defense of the castle with a reminder that Hunter is a Georgetown and Yale Law graduate and must have picked up some skills along the way. Kessler soft peddles Hunter’s multiple and well-documented grossnesses and abject incompetence with the following:

“Hunter Biden has had a checkered life, marked by substance-abuse problems. But he is also a graduate of Georgetown University and Yale Law School. One can presume he acquired some research skills at those institutions. He was also well-connected, with contacts he could draw on for information. In the email he refers to possibly hiring a firm to provide information ‘that’s not available through a Google search and some phone calls’ — suggesting that that is what he relied on for writing the email.”

The Washington Post also employs a media junkyard hack named Taylor Lorenz who, at one time, was suspended from Twitter for doxxing. She has a habit of chasing down people online, then complaining when people fight back.

It is no wonder WaPo published a lengthy hit piece on Republican Anna Paulina Luna that resembled Swiss cheese by the next day. Call it The Bezos Gazette — where stories die in a sea of corrections.
