Washington Post admits Ukraine interfered in 2016 election but attempts to minimize its effect

It’s virtually impossible to get anyone in the national media to concede that yes, Ukraine did interfere in the 2016 election for the explicit purpose of hurting President Trump’s campaign. And when one reporter finally does admit it, the result is comical, such as in this piece in the style section of the Washington Post last weekend.

The story, by Paul Farhi, looked at past articles written by reporter Kenneth Vogel, one in the New York Times and one in Politico, which have to do with conflict of interest questions swirling around Joe Biden and Ukraine’s 2016 meddling.
