Searching the internet I decided to write some information about a famous newspaper called The Washington Examiner.
The Washington
Examiner is a free daily newspaper published in Springfield, Virginia, and distributed in
the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. The
newspaper was formerly distributed only in the suburbs of Washington, under the
titles of Montgomery Journal,Prince George's Journal, and Northern
Virginia Journal. The Examiner is owned by Denver
billionaire Philip
Anschutz, who purchased
their parent company, Journal Newspapers Inc., in October 2004. On February 1,
2005, the paper's name changed to the Washington Examiner, and it
adopted a logo and format similar to that of another newspaper owned by
Anschutz, the San Francisco Examiner. The Examiner's parent
company, Clarity Media Group, also owns the conservative opinion magazine The Weekly Standard. The Examiner co-sponsored the Republican
presidential debate in Ames, Iowa on
August 11, 2011.
It was announced in
March 2013 that the paper will stop its daily print edition in June 2013 and be
replaced by a weekly print magazine.
Distribution
The newspaper is
supported entirely by advertisements and is distributed in the Washington, D.C. area. The paper is available at
most Washington Metro subway stations. It is
delivered to 300,000 houses on Thursdays and 250,000 on Sundays. It is printed
in a compact format. The Examiner covers
world, national, and local news and sports. The Examiner's executive editor is Stephen G. Smith.
The newspaper employs staff writers, news services, syndicated writers, and
freelance writers.
Format
Generally, the format
of the Examiner starts with a cover page with local headlines,
as opposed to national headlines. The next 8-10 pages are devoted to local
news. National/political news follows, with pieces about things such as
entertainment, real estate, etc. mixed in. There are typically four pages of
op-eds with both syndicated and exclusive articles. Several pages of legal
advertisements follow, and the last pages are for sports news.
Political views
The Examiner's
conservative writers include Byron York (National
Review),
Michael Barone (American Enterprise
Institute, Fox News Channel),
and David
Freddoso (National Review, author of The Case Against Barack Obama).
The paper endorsed John McCain in
the 2008 presidential election and Adrian Fenty in the Democratic primary for mayor in 2010.
On December 14, 2011, it endorsed Mitt Romney for
the 2012 Republican presidential
nomination, saying he was the only Republican who could beat Barack Obama in
the general election, releasing a series of critical articles of Obama.
