                         SHAME, WASHINGTON POST

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, the Washington Post bought eight brand-
new printing presses, $250 million, a quarter of a billion dollars. 
They got them from Mitsubishi of Japan, who they said was the low 
bidder over Rockwell International.
  Beam me up. How many, Mr. Speaker, how many businesses in Japan buy 
ads in the Washington Post? How many Japanese read the Washington Post? 
How many Japanese buy the Washington Post?
  Shame, Washington Post. Hide your face, and while you are hiding your 
face, on behalf of all the workers at Rockwell International who are 
not allowed to bid in Japanese markets, shove your printing presses up 
your low bid.
