Farewell Seattle P-I: A Photo Journey

The Seattle P-I and I had a love hate relationship. In my youth, I wasn't a big fan of its coverage. As time went on, and the Seattle Times moved further and further to the right, the P-I became the only source for a centrist (maybe slightly center-left) daily voice in Seattle. In such a majorly center-left city, to be left solely with a paper that endorsed George Bush in 2000, came out in favor of going to war in Iraq, and endorsed Dino Rossi in 2004 and 2008, is an absolute disgrace. In light of the loss, I leave you with a photo journey through the years of the Post-Intelligencer.
