    Thumbs up Washington Post to run full-page ad on Khashoggi killing

    The Washington Post plans to run a full-page ad Friday drawing attention to the death of columnist Jamal Khashoggi, part of a broader push that publisher Fred Ryan told POLITICO would continue "until meaningful action is taken" over Saudi Arabia's role in the killing.

    The ad, which a Post spokesperson said is a precursor to a larger advertising campaign planned for early 2019, features an image of the Saudi journalist with his face illuminated by a candle and reads, “A life is gone. The principles of free expression endure.”

    In a year-end memo to staff Wednesday, Ryan blistered the U.S. administration over its efforts to brush past Khashoggi’s killing, which U.S. intelligence believes was ordered by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

    Many people are frustrated and feel betrayed by the Trump administration’s apparent effort to sweep Jamal’s killing under the rug and its failure to stand up for America’s values," Ryan wrote in the memo. "They can be assured that The Washington Post will not rest until justice is served on those who ordered Jamal’s killing, those who carried it out, and those who continue to try to cover it up.”

    Hardly making Americans feel guilty, rather the Administration, and their failure to step forward

    don't care either way. what I do care about is not fucking up US/Saudi relations.

    Asshat Senators come out of the woodwork to impose sanctions on Russia and KSA when they can't
    get anything done themselves in Congress
