If we keep getting articles like this and the Post doesn't cover the team the way they do Maryland's dysfunctional athletic department, I'm happy.

What is the Examiner anyway? Like a DC Village Voice? They seem to be giving us great coverage, there are several pieces on us in there.

What is the Examiner anyway? Like a DC Village Voice? They seem to be giving us great coverage, there are several pieces on us in there. The Washington Examiner is a free daily newspaper published in Springfield, Virginia, and distributed in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. It is owned by Denver billionaire Philip Anschutz.
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. Anschutz 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.If I had to put a label on it, I would say that the Examiner is to The Wall Street Journal what Express is to The Washington Post. In the latter case, of course, the Express is published by WaPo and is an intentionally watered-down free version of the Big Paper, whereas there's no relationship between WSJ and the Examiner. But in terms of content, the Examiner's news stories are quite good for a free publication, while their op-eds reflect the political philosophies of Phil Anschutz in a way that will be familiar to anyone who has looked at the WSJ op-ed page.
