I guess the bright side of this is that you can still get crappy Chinese stuff delivered to your doorstep, sometimes on the same day you ordered it. Isn't that what's really important to most Americans?
Funny thing is, educated liberals are the backbone of the Post. Are they trying to lose business? I cancelled my subscription to both the Post and Amazon Prime. Fuck Bezos.
This is why we have an obligation to speak, march. Post, and just get involved. We have two years to focus on bringing working class folks that have walked away from Democrats back.
A BIG WIN is the ONLY way to shut this down.
It’s hard to know what’s going on with only one news gathering operation but many believed that their 2023 Mayoral race endorsement of Rebecca Rhynhart was due to her support of “school choice” vouchers.
Jerry Lenfest was an early promoter of charter schools as a solution for underfunded schools.
Billionaires don’t buy news gathering and dissemination organizations to support the free press
But this stirring little slogan, so tempting, made it irresistible to believe it was a call to journalistic arms, a celebration of the power of the pen.
We should thank Bezos for providing such a clear picture of what is really going on with all of our billionaire owned "news" outlets today. Trump was elected, both times, because the media treated him as if he was a normal candidate and downplayed
It didn’t die in darkness ffs, we are watching it in real time in bright daylight FFS Who was it that allowed the Traitorous Trump to campaign for president? Who was it who allowed him to delay, delay, delay until time ran out? And who was it that gave POTUS immunity for all his many and varied
crimes? It was the legal system, it was corrupt judges and it’s a system that put the system itself above the supposed values and integrity of our government. The msm fucks are just props for politicians who are props for oligarchs. #GlobalHumanity #GlobalWorkForce #GlobalUnions #FuckTheOligarchy
Before Bezoz, I never thought The Washington Post would ever be guilty of attacking freedom of speech. But with oligarchs controlling large swaths of media, attacking the courts, and bowing to #Trump, our constitution is not safe. Teetering towards authoritarian tyranny. Will democracy win out?
I'm old enough to remember the sale, iirc there was concern that WaPo might fail entirely due to revenue losses to online news sources. It seemed cool that someone rich would step up to save an important institution. Surprise ending tho, it was a successful purchase to control the narrative.
Same story as Twitter, but that had a stink from day 1. It's odd tho I haven't seen the narrative "now that we control US and trying for other countries, here is my/our view for getting closer to utopia". I've read it's mainly about control of AI, but like what is the effing Vision for 10 yrs out?
Boss Tweed is moving into the White House.
This cartoon brought down a corrupt politician back when the FREE press existed. Washington Post has died.
Next project for Amazon "All the Presidents Minions"
@washingtonpost.com helped. they helped oh so much going back to bush. once Katharine Graham died, her son ruined the post and then left it open to the vulture bezos.

Being owned by a foundation has enabled it to keep its outspoken independence.
Check into the billionaire bros who run the foundation.
They have political fingerprints all over the news that gets reported.
Which of these people is interfering with the Inquirer's editorial independence? Because so far we're not seeing it.

Now with the election of trump & Musk controlling the GOP.....I'm watching in horror.
It will rank below the Enquirer and other such respected news sources.
Billionaires can afford night vision goggles so while we stub our toes on the fascist furniture they’re robbing the intentionally darkened home.

Resistance isn't futile.
Revolution is necessary.

no one should ever read it again.
She Knew she won!
Democrats chose standards over Democracy and the people!
Life is choices and Dems chose oligarchy over honoring their oaths to the people’s constitution.
Dems will continue enjoying Citizens United benefits while Americans lose more constitutional freedoms and earned benefits.
