So that people understand what happened here and the extent of dishonesty in WaPo reporting: They wrote an article claiming to tell their audience about the Palestinian prisoners being released. But they didn't do that. The "reporters" intentionally left out even the most basic details.. such as that 120 out of 200 prisoners from last weekend were serving life sentences for various attacks, and instead sourced a few select examples presented in the most biased way possible based on information from a known front group for terrorists. All while intentionally omitting the nature of their sourcing. The Washington Post lost close to $100 million last year. It is a failed organization. This was a perfect example of why that trend is unlikely to change anytime soon.

Update: Wapo has added a clarification to the end of the piece. But it's unbelievably weak. No apology, and no explanation how an extremely amateur mistake like this could've occurred in the first place. And it doesn't even explicitly state that both orgs are terror groups.
