"Bezos didn’t let the Post die. He chose which part lives. He spent the last two years remaking the opinion section into his ideological megaphone while letting the newsroom bleed out. And this week he finished the job."

Jeff Bezos Gutted the Newsroom. He Kept the Megaphone.

Bezos didn’t abandon the Washington Post. He just decided which part of it he wanted.

"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."
