Last Thursday, when the Washington Post ran two pieces attacking the Democratic plan to empower Medicare to negotiate drug prices, I asked [1], "Is the Washington Post actively trying to thwart the First 100 Hours goal to empower Medicare to negotiate for lower drug prices?"
On Saturday, the Post editorial board [2] helped answer that question, formally coming out against the plan in an editorial.
To recap: that's one slanted news piece against the Dem plan, one oped from a Bush cabinet head against the plan, and one Post editorial against the plan.
Of note, GoozNews takes on the W. Post editorial here [3].
