Reply to comment by Master-Musician5006 in WaPo | Opinion: Elissa Silverman’s unacceptable conduct was not some minor violation by FamousConcert1220

At some point, it just becomes common sense. Like all efficient organizations, there is a division of labor at WaPo. Local politics is delegated to her. She has established a long track record of endorsing folk like Jack Evans, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that she publishes crap like this as well. Luckily, DC voters apparently don’t give a whit what she has to say. Her endorsements have a terrible track record of winning competitive elections.

What’s your evidence that they delegate it to her, a registered Independent?

EDIT: You have been debunked. In your words later in this comment thread you stated that the person who has been delegated the local WaPo political endorsements is “Jo-Ann Armao is the editor covering local politics.”

The woman in question penned an article defending Planned Parenthood in 2015: https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/wp/2015/07/15/dont-rush-to-judge-planned-parenthood/ .

And also voted for Hillary Clinton: https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/wp/2016/11/08/win-or-lose-clinton-has-done-something-remarkable/ . So yeah, not a Republican.
