"The part of the paper that covers wars and investigates corruption and holds the government (and Amazon) accountable? That’s the part he decided he could live without.

The megaphone stays. The newsroom goes. And if you think that’s a coincidence, I’ve got a $500 million yacht to sell you."

"The north star of corporate media isn’t defending free speech, holding powerful people accountable, or sharing the truth. It’s all about profits, ratings, and access to power, even if they’re enabling a fascist regime that will inevitably come for you and your colleagues."
