Honestly, that isn't a super convincing source. Every news outlet has a criticism section. For an almost 150 year old organization, that is pretty sparse. Even better some of things in there are non-issues like "Trump repeatedly railed against The Washington Post on his Twitter account." Who didn't he tweet "fake news" at?
News agencies are organizations made of humans that have flaws and we should always treat with a critical eye. But we shouldn't just dismiss one out of hand as not one of the best because of the existence of a "Criticism and controversies" section on Wikipedia especially when it is FAR tamer than many mainstream competitors.
- chihuahua 4y agoWhat you say is true, but you seem to be slightly missing the point of the comment you're responding to. That comment didn't say "WaPo is trash, should not be believed." It says "WaPo is neither perfect or terrible, and the information in this article is most likely somewhat accurate"
