8. It's owned by Philip Anschutz, a CO oil billionaire linked to right-wing politics

He spent years trying to promote Republicans in California. How much of that is influencing the Washington Examiner now, is hard to say; but news media owners, as you know, have become increasingly aggressive in their control over content.

Hard core Democratic-bashing 'journalist'. I though David Corn handled her well.
