To the owners, Editor and highest position at the Washington Post,
Hi,
I am still undecided as to which presidential candidate to vote for.
I absolutely believe your report about Donald Trump is clearly wrong and has gone way too far to attack him. Very obvious you don't want him to be president and you are breaking the rules of fair journalism.
He said what many think..that Obama isn't calling Islamic terrorists by name and it's very suspicious. I personally think our president has been not giving accurate accounts of these terrible shootings when he won't give the perpetrator's identity. He also didn't mention the 911 call from the terrorist praising ISIS. Mr Obama was well briefed before his news conference June 11th and withheld that very important detail.
That seems that he is protecting the radical Muslims who are attacking and killing us. Or he is protecting his legacy as a peaceful president?? It's a quandry for sure.
It's perplexed me and probably over 1/2 the nation for several years now.
WHY?? WHY??
I feel that after you corrected your story you proved that it was inaccurate but you didn't go far enough and you didn't apologize. As a matter of fact you showed no remorse and you are continuing to insult Mr. Trump.
You know as well as most of the American people that he did not connect Mr. Obama to the shootings. He was saying that after these shootings Obama never will call these people radical Islamic terrorists. Much like someone who doesn't want to offend their boss, Neighbor or their family so they refuse to say the truth about those who they have daily dealings with. Like if you had a Christmas party and your boss got really drunk and said and did some terrible things. If you were called in to describe what happened you would not want to disparage your boss because he might not get fired and he will still be your boss. This is why it is suspicious that Mr. Obama is afraid to call these terrorists by their name and by their origin.
In all the years of respected journalism by The Washington Post I am absolutely shocked that you have reported something so inaccurate.. then corrected it when you were caught but you changed it not in the least to correct the wrong. You really messed up and messed up again trying to put things in your favor.
It is still completely inaccurate. Mr. Trump did not imply that Obama was involved in any way in these criminal acts. He clearly said that following each terrible shooting where there have been ..I believe possibly 14 terrible shootings, many of those done by Islamic terrorists during Mr. Obama's presidency and 14 news conferences following each one and out of all those Mr. Obama blatantly refused to say radical Islamic terrorism.
You absolutely need to correct this wrong that you've done to mr. Trump. You need to apologize to him in public. You need to come clean and admit that you are trying to sabotage his campaign because you don't want him to be president.
Someone at the Washington Post who is in charge of that headline needs to be fired. And the Editor in Chief?? who wrote that follow up statement that "We will continue to report on Donald Trump"..and still blaming him for blocking you. and you showing no remorse...THEY NEED TO GO!
It needs to be done publicly and this should happen immediately.
Im a very concerned citizen who is EXTREMELY disappointed by the wrongful behavior by such a great news organization that has hurt the reputation of all the great journalists of the Washington Post that worked their whole lives to selflessy and fairly report accurate news. You have tarnished their life's work and your own history.
