The Wash Post is trying very hard to convince me to cancel my subscription. So far I resisted, but I am not sure how much longer I'll be able to resist.

For me, it was the price increase.

ccf40.bsky.social•44 days ago

Please support independent Journalism. The Democracy Docket and The Guardian are some good choices.

methyglyn.bsky.social•43 days ago

The Post is toast
( as is the NYTimes here)

Delighted to have thrown that $$$$ to the @inquirer.com @democracydocket.com and @contrariannews.org !

You know you want to

Bluesky ought to federate. Read Cory Doctorow's excellent rationale:

Go for it!

aebuckley2.bsky.social•44 days ago

Do it

mwf3.bsky.social•44 days ago

Unfortunately not all of us can afford different subscriptions.

justamomm.bsky.social•44 days ago

@marcelias.bsky.social has more courage than anyone in DC. When will Congress & media step up?

escobar1996.bsky.social•44 days ago

It's time to stop watching and reading mainstream media, independent media needs all our support now.

fema2h.bsky.social•43 days ago

No point continuing that subscription, the veil is lifted

frishermansfend.bsky.social•43 days ago

My guy, maybe 10% less with the self-promoting? I get it, but

doctruactif.bsky.social•43 days ago

I canceled my Post subscription more than a week ago.

nelagirl.bsky.social•44 days ago

I spent hours after work watching Watergate news with hubby and friends at our house . WaPo, Woodward and Bernstein were my heroes. What the hell happened ?

robertroy.bsky.social•44 days ago

Long time subscriber who has canceled. Replaced with several sources

ratingbook.bsky.social•43 days ago

Marc, your "content to begging" ratio is trending the wrong way. Lately, you're sounding a bit like a financial incel.

mztexblu.bsky.social•42 days ago

I took the big step to give up my WAPO sub and for the first day or so it felt a little odd not going to it to verify this or that. Shortly thereafter, I stopped even noticing it wasn’t there anymore. WAPO that we once knew is dead. Cancel it. You’ll be fine!!

ooblick.bsky.social•44 days ago

Many of the DC folks cancelled when the Editorial Board was overruled by Bezos of the Brown Lips on endorsing Kamala.

utexas-96.bsky.social•43 days ago

I suggest Democracy Docket. I'm a new subscriber.

jeannejax.bsky.social•44 days ago

Not a hard decision. Join Democracy Docket today!

jamespoindexter.com•44 days ago

Best decision I’ve made.

misstricia.bsky.social•44 days ago

I canceled and feel way better about the choice since Ms. Rubin resigned this week.

dzzytails.bsky.social•44 days ago

Subscribed, and thank you...many of us cannot afford to pay for news. <3

kathybellrieuf.bsky.social•43 days ago

I cancelled mine; even got a partial refund.

bll4ever.bsky.social•44 days ago

LOL. Wtf is this nonsense bot rambling? "They're telling me not to spend my money on them, but I just have to!" This is not a real-life scenario.

Block their ads, read news from everywhere. We don't align exclusively with any thoughts or ideas. This is just silly.

jasonatjrs.bsky.social•44 days ago

Don't ditch the Post... ditch your Amazon Prime account.

jfletcher.bsky.social•44 days ago

Or ditch the Post, cancel Prime, and deactivate your Amazon account.

jasonatjrs.bsky.social•44 days ago

That works too!

papgirl.bsky.social•43 days ago

Great resource Marc! Thank you for your work

dianeraucher.bsky.social•44 days ago

The Post went straight downhill ever since Marty Baron retired and Bezos didn’t replace him with a real person with journalistic integrity

goodinplenty.bsky.social•44 days ago

The Post is no longer the Post. Check and see how many of the reporters, etc. that you respected/trusted have left.

threekids5.bsky.social•43 days ago

Signed up for Democracy Docket. We dumped the Post and NYT a year ago.

rmrjersey.bsky.social•44 days ago

Decided to put my money where it might matter and became a monthly subscriber. Happy to support your mission.

roythedesertrat.bsky.social•44 days ago

Had to unsubscribe a dozen times before they stopped the renewal emails!

tjrc7777.bsky.social•44 days ago

Highly recommend Democracy Docket

drsams.bsky.social•44 days ago

Done!

iamcanadian3672.bsky.social•44 days ago

Dump the post

bugsy159.bsky.social•44 days ago

Free yourself.

mojochefjeff.bsky.social•44 days ago

The Washington Post, Like the NY Times is a hollowed out shell of its former self. Management will not allow their very able journalists to do their jobs. Dump them
