Quote from MrSkeptic :
Once you do this, you should be presented with this offer.

"We'd hate to see you go.
Keep your subscription, pay a special rate.
Secure a rate of $9.99 plus applicable sales tax for another year of access to trusted journalism.
We won't charge you until your subscription automatically renews on February 12, 2022."
I just tried and I think this worked. I got two years of a premium subscription at the $9.99 rate. Am I reading this wrong?

Due on November 23, 2022
Rate - $9.99 (plus applicable sales tax)

I NEVER read the Washington Post Opinion pieces, but their Fact-based journalism is still top-notch IMO.
I'm really glad they make the distinction and am happy to provide at least a little support to one of the few remaining institutions that at least attempt to make a distinction between fact-based reporting and opinion pieces.

I'd say use at least three diverse sources of information before you consider something as fact (Facebook, social media not counting)

This. BBC (not a newspaper, but a great source), Canada's Globe & Mail for a take on US news from outside the country (but there's a paywall for much of the stuff). The NYT has gone off the rails a bit lately, but mostly very good. Wall Street Journal for business, but ignore the editorial pages. The Economist. Stories from The Associated Press, Reuters, Bloomberg News.

PBS NewsHour is another great source.

"The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity." - Yeats

American media, including the right and the left and a bunch of alternative media, is a cesspool. My $0.02: Don't fanboy one news source. Stay away from editorial sections or garbage pieces with no research or independent sourcing. There are still good investigative pieces in the WSJ, NYT, and WP but there's a lot of clickbaity crap in them too. It's a shame papers this day and age still feel the need to publish editorial opinion pieces and fuel the culture war on both sides.

Every time I make the mistake of clicking on one of these discussions I feel my IQ dropping.

Cool, they gave me $19 back. 😎
Are you saving they credit back a pro-rata portion of an annual rate? I'm currently paying $39/year, expiring in March. Can I cancel, get the a credit back, and re-sign at the $10 rate?

Quote from ChrisS25 :
You can get the $9.99 rate for a second year if you cancel today and put the reason "promotion ended"
Do you mean canceling right after you sign up for the FIRST year $9.99 subscription? And if you do, the first year's access continues notwithstanding the cancellation?

Quote from luckydog97 :
How ironic, the user you responded to posts about propaganda, you respond about censorship, and SD censors his post about propaganda LMAO

The Washington post is the most obscenely biased drabble.

I don't want a liberal or conservative publications. Wasn't there a time when people wanted objective reporting so they could have information to decide for themselves? I suppose that is when corporations and governments treated adults like adults not large bodied children in need of reeducation.

I suspect if both sides reported the TRUTH without spinning, redacting, paraphrasing, and framing it to cater to their cult, many people would realize we all have much more in common than we realize.
Truth might be objective but our ability to report on, process and understand it will always be subjective. What you claim to want cannot ever possibly exist. In reality, beyond the obvious things like the laws of physics, what people claim is "objective" is usually what they wish for it to be.
