The Washington Post Company increases income, but shares sell off
Filed under: Earnings reports, Newspapers, New York Times'A' (NYT), Gannett Co (GCI), Media World  The Washington Post Company (NYSE: WPO) published data for the third quarter earlier today.

<>One of the ones that caught our attention was this letter between the SEC and the Washington Post Co. (WPO) which is dated July 16, but only became available on Friday. (Just a reminder: the rules on comment letters are that the SEC releases them no sooner than 45 days after the matter has been d...
