Wouldn’t you assume that the point of a news website is to get the news out right away?
The Washington Post doesn’t seem to grasp this. I almost never see breaking news on their website; today just points out how strange this is: I read on the San Francisco Chronicle website that there was a Metro derailment in DC… but this news is nowhere to found on Washington’s newspaper site even more than three hours later.
It just confirms another assumption: the point of the Washington Post website is to sell advertising.
