Does Bob Graham Own the Post?

In today’s Washington Post, columnist Richard Cohen writes that Sen. Bob Graham, D-Fla., a possible vice presidential nominee, is “related to my boss.” Which boss, and what’s the relation?

Bob Graham is the younger half-brother of the late Philip Graham, who was married to Katharine Graham, who is chairman of the Washington Post Co.

They are no relation to Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas.
