That is one hell of a quote.
Thanks for sharing it, @wdlindsy .

The Lizzie Johnson who the Washington Post laid off today while she was reporting from Ukraine — "in the middle of a war zone" to quote her — is the same reporter who did such a fantastic job covering wildfires when she was at the San Francisco Chronicle. I knew I recognized that name. Damn.

Jeff Bezo's destruction of the Washington Post brand is the worst brand destruction since.... Elon Musk destroyed both Twitter and Tesla, which was the worst brand destruction since Trump destroyed the USA.
it is no "accident" or "bad management".
Billionaires want to destroy free speech, accountability and scrutiny, it only makes sense they destroy the Liberal Newspapers and the free press.
Hungary's fascist leader, Viktor Orbán, didn't have as easy a time bringing media under his control as Trump is doing in America -- but he also didn't have a few massive technology oligarchs on his side.
Not a hint on the Washington Post's homepage that it just gutted key parts of its news staff.
Bye bye #wapo 👋 👋 👋 👋

So, Billionare, and Epstein Class member, Jeff #Bezos has laid off 1 in 3 employees at the #WaPo. And while there are claims of ideological bias currying favor with the Pedophile in Chief and his Epstein supplied bride, which certainly appear to be corroborated by things like the hagiographic film in theatres, I put it to you that is much darker and deeper.
Bezos is following the vulture capital model. Buy an entity, usually with its own money, load it with new debt, strip out anything valuable, gut it, destroy it, and sell the remaining assets to a smaller fish to do reclamation.
Jeff bought wapo to destroy it. And a damn fine job he’s done.
