Bezos’ personal propaganda machine

I was a subscriber for many, many years, all the time worrying that Bezos would finally start exercising his power over the news and editorial content. That moment came with the 2024 U.S. presidential election, and has snowballed ever since. Anyone still working at this paper is a shameless toadie. I now read the Associated Press instead.

Commit to Democracy

I discontinued my WaPo subscription last year after a long period of putting up with misleading headlines and inconsistent coverage. My decision was justified in the lastest refusal to endorse a candidate after originally planning to. I unsubscribed to both WaPo and the NYT. If CNN and others had required a subscription, they would have gone as well.
