Best News App Out There

No newspaper is perfect, but the washington post is a nice mix of current news, investigative news, interesting opinion pieces, and sprinkled with entertaining articles. I’m happy paying for this app every month because I get my money’s worth.

Reader comments

Like the summary’s but would like 2 of them: 1) most common, 2) tone of those opposed since the Post is still a left leaning publication

Until it was owned by Bezo it was a pillar of journalism. It’s shameful what he’s done to it
