A poster named "wagglebee" at Free Republic told me something that explains a lot about the Virginian Pilot:
A couple years ago on the anniversary of the Wright Brothers flight at Kitty Hawk the Pilot ran the original front page from 1903. In the top right hand corner it carried the statement, "True to the Democratic Party in victory or defeat." I sent a letter to the editor recommending that they start using it again so that military personnel moving to the area wouldn't be surprised that the local paper in the largest military community in the world was as left-wing as the rest of the media -- I never heard back from them.
