Washington Post is ‘fessing up to its poor investigation of Obamacare—by mentioning some facts now

I noticed this in a long article in Washington Post about employer health insurance problems under the 2nd wave of Obamacare.

"An estimated 18 million to 24 million people in the United States have insurance through employers with fewer than 50 workers, and about 40 million have coverage through firms with fewer than 100 workers. The Department of Health and Human Services estimated in 2010 that up to 80 percent of small-group plans, defined as having fewer than 100 workers, could be discontinued by the end of 2013."

Sort of made me wonder why WaPo thought the small percentage who didn't have insurance before Obama took office, were so much more important than the millions more that would be losing either coverage or jobs as companies closed. WaPo has been the president's lap dog until very recently.
