As someone in Seattle, which also recently replaced a seawall and has had cherry trees that were removed during waterfront construction: can reporters please start putting "Washington, D.C." in headlines?
As someone near Seattle who’s lived on both coasts, this is highly unlikely. Native east coasters will continue to refer to the state as “Washington State” and the District of Columbia as “D.C.” while Washingtonians will continue refer to either as whatever they do, and both will continue to see the other as being weird af, with east coasters maintaining the point of view of “We got here first, you dorks.”, or some such.
The complaint was that the article just says "Washington", which doesn't fit either of your examples. It's misleading. (The story is about D.C.)
As an Oregonian, I fully support calling Washingtonians dorks...
That Washington. Always chopping down cherry trees and telling the truth about it.
