This comes as no shocking revelation to those who pay attention. But, it's nice to see it in print.

Yep. That’s why Levin refers to it as the Washington Pompost. Lol.

I submit that it impossible for an organization as dishonest as the WP to be embarrassed.

Washington Post ‘fell’ for nothing. They knew it to be a fraud; they are part of the Ministry of Propaganda, engaged in the two-minute-hate of Emmanuel Goldstein.

It's almost as if we are living in an alternative universe. To be against Keystone you have to believe several of the following:
Lowering CO2 emissions is an important goal.
Not building Keystone will shut in oilsands production and lower CO2 emissions.
An additional 650,000 B/D uninterruptible oil supply to CONUS would not lower energy prices or increase energy security for the US or increase job creation.
Shipping the oil by rail is safer and more environmentally friendly.
I could go on, but you get the picture. There is a certain cognitive dissonance being embraced by a large percentage of the populace. I hope enough of them get over it. Soon.

Print?
The Noo Yawk Times is print. The LA Times is print. Gannett is print.
Powerline is a website. The unwashed masses still get their news from fishwrap and CNN.
When you see one of them discussing this, then you can say it’s in print. Until then, it’s “just another screed by bloggers in pajamas.”

just another screed by bloggers in pajamas. I'm not getting your point. Are you saying we need to post only from "reliable" MSM sources? Why the contempt for the bloggers? I know there is a disdain for a certain segment of those. But, this piece contains some real investigative journalism.

My point was bitter sarcasm.
The best investigative journalism, where the original spirit of journalism still survives, is NOT in the MSM, but rather in the online blogs and alternate media. We all know this; hell, we as FReepers are a part of it.
But the great unwashed - aka Zombies, aka Sheeple, aka low-info’s - are taught to dismiss the alternate media as fringe, kooks, and illegitimate. The mind control of Socialism is complete.
Yes, it’s accurate. Yes, it’s good journalism. And yes, it will be suppressed by MINITRUE.

I'd like to see someone do a similar report/graphic using "legacy print media."

From their looks, and certainly their political stance, they come from the extreme shallow end of the gene pool.
