The Washington Post's two-part comprehensive investigative story into the 2006 murder of Robert Wone was not published in the print version of the paper. Hooray for online media? Or just another way to shaft people still getting information from newsprint? Actually, both: The Post backed the long-form enterprise story but didn't want to waste space in the paper, a move that both supports investigative journalism and butchers its print product.

How do you successfully run a newspaper when you are counting every sheet of newsprint used? How important does a story have to be to warrant an additional page?
Hey, he was a self-described "sub"- so by definition, not a full human, and not worth the newsprint.
@Fitz:
Fitz, what are you talking about? Wone was not into S&M. He was a college friend of a gay man, and was supposed to spend the evening catching up with his friend. Instead, he was drugged, raped, and murdered. There's nothing humorous about his death. It's horrific.
It's amazing how victims of sexual violence get smeared. Disgusting.
