Hehehe. Hoax debunking is such a fun sport. These things are always so full of "facts", that
never stand up to even the slightest amount of scrutiny. Even something as minor as the quip at the end about the Washingtonian magazine editorial is garbage.

Apparently they got tired of people emailing them reading them the riot act, cause they posted a message about it on their website.

The message that is apparently out over the Internet about an "editorial" by The Washingtonian supporting an e-mail tax is a hoax.
