> Also (off topic) they have begin a policy of shadowbanning commenters in their comment sections who disagree with their "official" policy on things.

This policy is known to exist or you believe it does? Serious question.

You mean is it a published policy? Not that I know of.

Does it happen? At least once (personally observed) and I assume more.

They really ought to get rid of comments if they are going to shadowban. An echo chamber of Clinton support is kind of sad at this point and I doubt it fools anyone.

It is their paper and they have a right to publish whatever propaganda they want. And they certainly have been doing that. It's kind of sad to see the major paper of our nations capital sunk to this level but I guess it's the trajectory of big media right now.
