The Washington Post


About

The Washington Post is Washington, D.C.'s largest newspaper and its oldest still-existing paper, founded in 1877. Located in the capital of the United States, The Post has a particular emphasis on national politics.

D.C., Maryland, and Virginia editions are printed for daily circulation. The newspaper is published as a broadsheet, with photographs printed both in color and black and white.

Perhaps the most notable incident in The Post's history was when, in the early 1970s, reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein led the American media's investigation into what became known as the Watergate scandal. The newspaper's reporting greatly contributed to the resignation of U.S. President Richard Nixon.

In later years, its investigations led to increased review of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

The newspaper is also known as the namesake of "The Washington Post March", the 1889 march composed by John Phillip Sousa while he was leading the U.S. Marine Band; it became the standard music to accompany the two-step, a late 19th-century dance craze.
Since Leonard Downie, Jr. was named executive editor in 1991, The Post has won 25 Pulitzer Prizes, more than half of the paper's total collection of 47 Pulitzers. This includes six separate Pulitzers awarded in 2008, the second-highest number of Pulitzers ever given to a single newspaper in one year. The Post has also received 18 Nieman Fellowships and 368 White House News Photographers Association awards, among others.

The newspaper is owned by The Washington Post Company, an education and media company that also owns Kaplan, Inc. and many media ventures aside from The Post.
