Washington Post

With Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart away, his former colleague Ruth Marcus stepped up to pinch-hit for him on Friday’s edition of PBS News Hour. At the end of the discussion with New York Times columnist David Brooks, Marcus claimed the reason she left the Post is because owner Jeff Bezos is trying “to limit dissent” at the paper despite…

Tuesday night in his newsletter Status, former conservative reporter-turned-caustic progressive Oliver Darcy was in need of a fainting couch, some pearls to clutch, or a safe space over a supposed sign of the apocalypse in The Washington Post slowly backing away from its dumb slogan “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” To be clear, the Jeff Bezos-owned paper told him it won’t be retired…

It’s apparently Opposite Day. A leftist economic think tank funded by George Soros is crying that the media lied about President Joe Biden’s economy … by trying to convince everyone that it was bad. What is this, the Twilight Zone?

Between the decision not to endorse Kamala Harris and CEO Jeff Bezos’s move to restrict the opinion page to only columns that support free markets and personal liberties, there has been a heavy amount of weeping and gnashing of teeth among liberals over the fate of the Washington Post and how Bezos has sold out to Donald Trump. Such claims are hysteria, as evidenced by a Wednesday op-…

During a briefing Monday afternoon otherwise dominated by probing questions about the weekend deportation flights of dangerous illegal immigrants who belong to the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA), White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took a moment to zing the French after a French member of the European Parliament demanded the U.S. return the Statue of Liberty.

The New York Times can’t seem to make up its mind. Is free speech "killing us"? Or is Trump killing free speech?

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos is taking a stand for free speech. Or is he?

Former CNN reporter Maria Ressa won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 for her “efforts to safeguard freedom of expression.” However, as the heads of the social media platforms move past their relationship with fact-checking companies and towards greater freedom of speech, she warned Comedy Central’s The Weekly Show podcast host Jon Stewart that America is sliding towards “kleptocracy.”

Amazing. One can easily imagine that the headline writers at the conservative leaning New York Post were laughing as they wrote the following headline about the lefty Washington Post. The headline: 

The cast of Friday’s PBS News Hour was not interested in subtlety, nuance, or level-headedness as they discussed recent media news. Host Amna Nawaz wondered if “we’re in much more sinister territory now” due to the changes surrounding the White House press pool. Both Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks agreed,…

MSNBC’s staggering lack of self-awareness was in rare form Thursday. That night on The 11th Hour, Marty Baron, former executive editor of The Washington Post, opined on the Post’s recent espousal of personal liberty and free market views. Baron was outraged that the paper had taken positions he happened to dislike, and called the move “undemocratic,” suggesting,…

Apparently, ABC News and Disney were against “personal freedoms and free markets.” That was the message being sent judging by the reaction from the liberal ladies of The View, on Friday, when they were collectively up in arms over Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos telling the opinion side of the paper those American ideals were what they were going to focus on.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough whines about Jeff Bezos's new editorial policy for his Washington Post, in which the focus will be personal liberties and free markets, without publishing opposing viewpoints. Hypocritical Scarborough ignores the fact that opposing viewpoints to liberal talking points are rarely heard on his own show.

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos announced a dramatic ideological shift for his newspaper’s opinion section toward free markets, and staff are predictably having a nervous breakdown over it.
