Who would you like to see buy The Washington Times?

Now that Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church is selling that bastion of wackadoodle right-wing Republican pseudo journalism, The Washington Times, the question is of course, who should buy it?

Who would you nominate to own, publish, manage, edit and write for a new progressive daily newspaper in the nation's capital?

Given it's church origins immediate thoughts run to the likes of Unitarian-Universalist (better than Unification; donchya think) or perhaps the Church of the FSM.

However, given Dean Baker's point that their local competition is the long self-degraded Washington Post already amounts to being close to a Fox "News" outlet, it would be nice to have real progressive ownership, management and staff running the other daily newspaper in the nation's capital.

Okay, so, after George Soros, or whomever, buys it, who should manage, edit and staff it?

As much as I like the professionalism, institution building and entrepreneurial savvy shown at Talking Points Memo, it would be nice to empower and honor those who actually got the Iraq War right.

How about some of the good folks doing real journalism at The Nation and Think Progress?  Also the political, news and D.C. reporters from HuffPo are pretty good (though definitely not their health or medical bloggers!).  And of course the ombudsman should come from Media Matters for America.

So... who would you suggest for new ownership, management and staffing for a new and progressive Washington Times? Add your suggestion in the comments. Have at it:
