The Washington Post is an American daily newspaper founded in 1877. It is one of the most widely circulated newspapers in the United States and is known for its political reporting and analysis. The term 'Washington Posts' can refer to two different things. The first is the newspaper itself, and the second is the interns and senate seats associated with it. Interns are people who work at the Washington Post for a short period of time, usually as part of a college or university program. Senate seats refer to the two senators from the state of Washington who represent the state in the United States Senate.
