"the urgent search for the best baguette in Paris" actual wapo headline.

I am, unasked for by me, on wapo's email list. Some days it is entertaining, other days, annoying. The "must read" email this morning had the above mentioned as the lead article. Nowhere in the list of "must reads" was there a mention of the bombing, inccluding the bombing of the girls' school. What they covered elsewhere I have no idea.

With all the potential Epstein files stories waiting to be written, this once-great paper has been reduced to crumbs.
