Some positive coverage of yesterday's D.C. rally
Advertisements [?]

Today's Washington Post newspaper provided a front page photo (small, but front page nevertheless) of the march, along with an in-depth story in the main ("A") section. Additionally, there was a story in the "Style" section re: military families at the march. Both focused on the march itself, and when mention was made of the rally it had to do with Sharpton's remarks. No mention was made of fringe politics, which is fine. Despite how you feel about it, the Post is a mainstream paper read by many, and their accounting of yesterday's events (especially the military families article) will go over well with many Americans still trying to sort their feelings out.

Oh, the Freeps got mentioned, too - 50(!) of 'em showed up for their rally, per the Post. I never saw them - did anyone???
