Elegy for the WaPo

Mostly reporters and opinion writers write flat let-me-tell-you-what's-going-on prose ... mostly. Every now and then one writes from the heart and may even leave you with a tear in your eye.

One of the latter is David Ignatius' column about the sale of the paper he works for, the Washington Post. He conveys a real love for the place he works, and the people he's worked with and for.

I hope he can continue to feel this way about the new WaPo. I'm certain it is his wish, too.
