Both that paper and the one in Roanoke, under the same ownership, are about as smugly left-wing as you can get, ever eager to mimic the Washington Post. In 2007 the one in Roanoke published a database of every Virginia resident who holds a state-issued permit to carry a concealed handgun. The list contained the names and home addresses of everyone with a permit, including undercover policemen and Federal agents. And then bragged about it. This newspaper group is definitely pro-criminal.
And my comment was badly phrased. The media won't notice this until of of its prominent members is attacked. If some thug went after Matt Lauer we would hear about it for decades.
