Press syndication service
"The Washington Post" Writers Group (WPWG), a division of The Washington Post News Service &amp; Syndicate, is a press syndication service distributing opinion columnists, breaking news, podcasts and video journalism, lifestyle content, and graphics and data visualizations. The service is operated by "The Washington Post".
History.
"The Washington Post" Writers Group formed in 1973.
In 2009, the "Post" dissolved its relationship with the "Los Angeles Times" (see the Los Angeles Times–Washington Post News Service) and joined with Bloomberg News to form The Washington Post News Service with Bloomberg News, which provided up to 150 national and international stories plus photos and graphics.
In 2013 the Writers Group was providing syndicated columns, editorial cartoons, features, and comic strips to newspapers, magazines, and other subscribers globally. 
The Washington Post Writers Group wound down distributing editorial cartoons and comic strips starting in early 2022; announcing it would finish out any existing contracts. In response, a number of strips left for other syndicates. In addition, a group of the syndicate's editorial cartoonists — including Clay Bennett, Jack Ohman, and Pedro X. Molina — left for Nick Anderson's Counterpoint Media, which launched its own syndication service.
Writers.
Writers syndicated by the group include Eugene Robinson, Kathleen Parker, E. J. Dionne, George Will, and Ruth Marcus. The late Charles Krauthammer was also a syndicate member.
Comic strips.
The syndicate began distributing comic strips in the early 1970s; its first notable strip was Berkeley Breathed's "Bloom County". Long-running strips distributed by the service included Brian Crane's "Pickles" (1990–2022), Dave Blazek's "Loose Parts" (1991–2022), and Darrin Bell's strips "Rudy Park" (2001–2018) and "Candorville" (2003–2022).
