Indeed. They were part of a lonely band of journalist in Washington who were questioning the lies and misrepresentations that Bush and Cheney were tossing about to grease the way to war. Few mainstream outlets applied the skepticism that was warranted and we rushed into a disaster.

There is some sad irony in McClatchy shutting its DC bureau the same day that Dick Cheney died.

That bureau (then Knight-Ridder) did some of the best, most skeptical reporting anywhere in the run-up to the Iraq War. And they took a lot of shit for it at the time.

If nothing else I find it obscene to turn governmental agencies that are meant to function as institutions in service of the entire American political community into overtly partisan propaganda mouthpieces.

It’s just such a visceral degeneration of civic life it drives me insane.
