Press Reviews
The Washington Post - Reasonably good newspaper. Somewhat of a liberal bias, but then this is a pretty liberal town. We like that they've recently made the jump to 4-color process.The Washington Times - Way conservative. But then what do you expect from a paper founded by Moonies?USA Today - It's McPaper. Don't even bother. |
