Quote:Allegedly unbiased Washington Post reporter Janell Ross spoke at a top-secret meeting of liberal movers and shakers last week, where Democratic donors including billionaire George Soros outlined the future of their progressive agenda.

A Post spokesperson told the Washington Free Beacon that Ross took part of the California event “without notifying her superiors that she would be attending.”

The Democracy Alliance, which hosted the event, bills itself as “the largest network of donors dedicated to building the progressive movement in the United States” on the group’s official website. The liberal group also claims to “play a leading role in fostering the infrastructure necessary to advance a progressive agenda” in the United States.

The group intended to keep “the identities of its members and guests confidential,” according to the Beacon, but the paper obtained a “detailed conference agenda that lists both events and featured guests.” Once the Beacon revealed the attendees, the group reportedly beefed up security and asked participants to keep details off social media.

One of the surprising guests was Ross, who used to pass as a somewhat impartial reporter for the prestigious Post. While the paper’s slogan is, “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” she apparently wanted to keep her bosses in the dark about attending the liberal planning session and hanging out with prominent Democratic donors such as Soros.

Waiting for someone to say they will now have some "healthy skepticism" over WaPo's reporting.

I hope WaPo understands that Democracy is actually a bad thing.

That's why we want to keep our Republic.

Democracy Dies in Darkness. Please keep the guest list confidential. Masks available at the door. No film at 11.

The alt-left has absolutely no shame.

How’s this for a novel idea, how about the amazon wapo and the failing nyt stop hiring activists, and start hiring some real journalists? The fact that they feel the need to shape the narrative instead of just reporting the news proves that the alt-left agenda can’t stand on it’s own without fake news promoting it and nazi collaborators funding it. Sad.

I would expect someone who doesnt understand what an insurance deductible is to also not understand what a reporter is.

b/c they don't exist anymore in corpshite journo land (and nobody would hire them if they did).......that's why.....(in your defense)

Independent citizen journalists are the future. Traditional newspaper business models just cannot profit anymore. They require payment to publish stories to breakeven... hence, the fake news.

Or better:

It was simply “journalistic research”.

Kinda like every one of these freaks busted with kiddie porn.

Are you really this stupid?

Krauthammer et al aren't unbiased journalist. They're pundits for their side. They don't do investigative writing. They're editorialist. Everyone knows their political bent. They don't hide it. They're openly conservative.

This woman is a supposed unbiased journalist. Not Juan Williams or one of The Young Turks who are open about their political leanings.

Exactly. I have no issues with those in media that are openly for one side or the other......you know where they are coming from and take whatever they say for what it is.

The insidious part of journalism are those that pretend neutrality, but are anything but. They hide their true colors and want their slanted writings taken as neutral. Very close to out and out and out liars. It's the deception that's the problem.

I don't like or agree with Rachel Maddow, but I know where she is coming from upfront so I have no real problem with her. Same with Hannity.

At some pt it’s no longer even worth responding to.

But, kudos for you taking the time.
