Washington Post Rated Number-One News Source for Federal Government Leaders
The Washington Post was rated the number-one news source for all federal government leaders across the country, according to the 2016 Erdos & Morgan Opinion Leaders Study. The new study, states The Post, finds that nearly three quarters of all executive branch leaders read The Post in print, and legislative branch leadership visits The Post’s website more than any other news source each week.
“For another consecutive year, we top every other publication for beltway government and business industry leaders’ readership.
