WASHINGTON TOAST

BANZAI7--Washington Post Co.'s flagship newspaper plans to close its remaining U.S. news bureaus outside of the Washington, D.C. area, in a symbolic retreat for one of the country's major newspapers.

The six affected journalists in the New York, Los Angeles and Chicago bureaus will be offered new posts in Washington. Three news aides in those locations will lose their jobs, the Post said. "It won't affect our circulation since people in Washington don't really care about what goes on in the rest of the country."

All future national news will be drawn from Google News, the business section of the NY Post, TWITTER and the WilliamBanzai7 Blog.
