Content

Many stories and pictures come from the Associated Press, The Christian Science Monitor, Getty Images and other wire sources. The features and entertainment part of the newspaper uses a number of reporters. Their original stories are available on the washingtonpost.com website. The newspaper is financed solely by advertising.
The newspaper, which has traditionally taken a left-leaning stance, does not have an opinion section or letters to the editor, unlike other newspapers in the local market such as The Politico, The Washington Examiner, The Washington Post, and The Washington Times.
Layout and mobile applications
The newspaper launched a redesign on November 30, 2009, which emphasized a more magazine-style front page, along with a daily cover story; Later on in 2014, it launched another redesign meant to engage readers more with the paper version rather than on a phone.
In August 2010, the newspaper launched a mobile application, DC Rider, which is available for iOS devices (iPhone and iPod Touch) and Android devices.
