'Great journamalism': Smug WaPo journo sneering at people suggesting DC is 'out of control' apparently hasn't been paying attention [video]

Washington, D.C., is the place to be right now if you’re looking for a laid-back, relaxed atmosphere. Don’t believe us? Well, maybe you’ll believe Washington Post assignment editor Steve Kolowich:

Just went on an extremely pleasant walk through Washington, D.C.

People are dining outside. Farmer's markets packed. Malcolm X Park is flush with picnic pods, families on blankets, people doing yoga and boxing drills. Most people have masks on, even outdoors, but otherwise the vibe is pretty casual and upbeat.

Kolowich’s colleague, WaPo journalist Dan Zak, feels pretty safe, too:

Breaking news from Washington, D.C., noted hellhole. https://t.co/QI12ICFPrT

Love the snark, Dan. Obviously people suggesting that D.C. is less than safe just don’t know the District like he does:

Washington, D.C., is simply out of control. pic.twitter.com/lhOR3k1m7m

Why would anyone think Washington, D.C., is out of control?

Was @MrDanZak covering this march or nah? https://t.co/8YwyVS9rjZ

Let’s see what’s been going on in D.C. when the sun goes down:

We’ve got a group marching out here in DC this evening. There are a lot of police officers following behind. pic.twitter.com/34rt1GfRoV

We’ve stopped outside a restaurant in DC and people in the crowd are shouting “out of the bar and into the streets” at people sitting outside having dinner/drinks pic.twitter.com/qfWcHVHrfF

The crowd is now holding the intersection in front of Le Diplomate and giving speeches (no longer directed at those eating/drinking). A waiter is offering water to the crowd: pic.twitter.com/zoamfmzA7E

People in the crowd are setting off firecrackers and shining flashlights into homes here in DC as the march continues pic.twitter.com/mZ2xGXr6go

Most of the crowd is down the street holding a line, but some people have come up to officers and are throwing things at them pic.twitter.com/p3cbvkbKg9

A march organizer is telling people to stop throwing things at police. Verbal fights are now breaking out among people in the crowd pic.twitter.com/uM9bzFhMVR

People in the crowd taunt officers and throw bottles at them. Police put on helmets and more gear, it’s just after midnight in DC pic.twitter.com/2c4b1DL1Sw

Police are firing crowd control munitions aggressively to try and disperse the crowd pic.twitter.com/imnkMMCfQ9

Looks like police in DC have handcuffed a few people. They’re now sitting on the ground in a circle with officers around them: pic.twitter.com/ozRPC0eoTr

Can’t imagine why anyone would think things in D.C. are out of control.

Flagging for you, Dan you doofus https://t.co/4w0JRL066j

Still shocked he thought this was a good tweet

Journos are Biden supporters and are the propaganda arm of Antifa https://t.co/QS8IGkIWNJ
