Owner Jeff Bezos defends Washington Post's decision not to endorse as right, 'principled' one

Just another example of those at the top who decide on the candidate and there election, and that decision has been taken.

I am proud to add my name to the list of ex-subscribers. "Democracy dies in darkness," indeed!

Finally sanity from a newspaper. Nice one Bezos!

They should be proud to have a less-biased source of news. The UK press is rancid with political allegiance, and of no real value as a consequence. If you only read things you will agree with, you will be living in a bubble. Eventually, reality will be a nasty shock.

It wlil be interesting to see if Mr. Bezos has anything to add to this depending on the result of the election.

With his huge fortune, Bezos is probably party to inside information that Trump's going to win, and wants to avoid anything that will detract from his bottom line under America's new dictatorship, uh sorry, administration.

100% Agree, news outlets should be FREE of any political influence and should never Endorse anyone.

There job is to report facts and not FAKES.

250K canceled subscriptions, so far. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/oct/29/washington-post-subscriber-cancellations

They should report facts as facts. They should report opinions as opinions. Then where there is a clear stance, take it. Doing anything less is like looking at the sun and claiming it is night and the sun is actually the moon.
