Content Sharing At WaPo?

Amid news the New York Times wants to mortgage its Manhattan headquarters, and the Tribune Company has filed for bankruptcy, comes word the Washington Post is in discussions with other news organizations on the sharing of content and costs.

Rumors circulated that Post Executive Editor Marcus Brauchli had offered to supply the Los Angeles Times with Washington and foreign news if the Times continued to close its bureaus in the US and overseas. That rumor seems to be false—at the moment.

However, sources within the Post did confirm that its executives have been talking to major media companies about collaborating.
