It’s not simply a secret: Progressive journalists wanna create progressive stories and mock conservatives! The issue is that there isn’t a target market for it, though. Next season, The Washington Post lost$ 77 million.  ,

Jeff Bezos, who owns the Washington Post, knows how to build a successful, stable, responsible business: He’s for about$ 227.5 billion and was the brains behind a little-known firm called Amazon. He has a first look at trends in business and his spending patterns. He is more knowledgeable about how homes make financial choices than just about anyone else.
And he’s under absolutely no obligation — social, political, or otherwise — to underwrite leftwing advertising.
The Washington Post is not a nonprofit educational organization or a common confidence. Bezos spent$ 250 million on the Post in 2013 with the intention to create income. There is no compelling reason to believe this is a love job, according to the Washington Post, who stated in PRINT that this isn’t” a charity event for Jeff Bezos.”
He’s a business making company decisions.  ,
And because the Washington Post was hemorrhaging million upon millions of dollars each month, Jeff Bezos chose to switch to an editor format:
I gave this statement to the Washington Post crew this morning:
I’m writing to let you know that our mind sites are changing.
We will be writing every day in security and support of two fundamental rights: personal liberty and free markets. We’ll cover different topics also…
— Jeff Bezos ( @JeffBezos ) February 26, 2025
According to CNN, Washington Post reporters are now in “open revolution” against Bezos.
Bezos has ironically undermined personal liberties by” apply yielding a leader who shows no respect for liberty,” according to Marty Baron, the Post’s revered former executive director, who won 11 Nobel Prizes. The businessman, whose holdings also include a sizable portion of Amazon and storage technologies company Blue Origin, “has prioritized those corporate interests over The Post, and he is betraying The Post’s historic principles.”
The Post described itself as providing protection for” all of America” just months earlier, according to Baron. Only some of America, those who think exactly like he does, can then access its mind sites.

Baron’s analysis pulls back the curtain and reveals the staggering amount of privilege among D. C.’s journalists: The Post’s mind page was surely no for” all of America”! It was a one-sided, unending, distorted beat that blasted liberals, eviscerated Trump, and wrote like papers to all things progressive. Persona non-grata was held by conservatives and by democrats.
Curiously, when the Washington Post was providing its award-winning cover for” all of America”, it previously endorsed a second Republican presidential candidate. Not even once by crash!
However, the liberal frenzy against Bezos was really beginning:
Cameron Barr, a former top managing director for the Post, previously stated in a LinkedIn post that his departure would “avoid its dedication to publishing a good diversity of opinion and discussion.”
Recent employees echoed those views. Five minutes after the announcement was made, Philipp Bump, the author of the Post’s” How to Learn This Chart” email, inquired what the real deal was. On Bluesky, post tech reporter Drew Harwell provided a summary of the comments made on the story that the Post’s personal AI tool had identified as” substantial discontent” from readers and” strong sentiment of treachery among long-time members.” And, tellingly, David Maraniss, an editor at the paper, said on Bluesky that he would “never write for ( the Post ) again as long as ( Bezos is ) the owner”.
” An total abandonment of the principles of transparency of the strong, justice, democracy, human rights, and accurate data that previously animated the area in favor of a white man billionaire’s self-interested agenda”, Amanda Katz, who recently parted ways with the Post’s Opinion section, said of the overhaul on Bluesky.

Jeff Bezos wanted to fight for free markets and personal liberties at the very least!
It’s a level of unhinged vitriol and frothing outrage that is so disproportionate that it makes the journalists look like kooks. The majority of Americans value free markets and personal liberties. The majority of Americans, who Bezos is trying to appeal to, are not at all opposed to it.
These whining Post writers weren’t equity holders in the paper: They were salaried employees! Jeff Bezos paid them to adhere to a particular business model. He even gave’ em the benefit of the doubt and went down the “resistance” and/or” Democracy dies in darkness”! rabbit hole with gusto.
Remember, the Washington Post adopted its dopey” Democracy dies in darkness”! slogan way back on Feb. 22, 2017 — over eight years ago! — and it’s now 2025. Trump just won the popular vote, Republicans just won both houses of Congress, and his newspaper just lost another$ 77 million. Bezos is many things, but he’s not an idiot.
Of course, he made a change! The same losing formula would be followed by only a brain-dead dolt today!
And in doing so, he removed the radical left’s facade of entitlement and duplicity.  ,
If you hadn’t noticed, the Democrats never raised objections to Bezos and his billions while they were doing their bidding. But now that he’s gone MAGA, he’s an evil oligarch:
This is how media ownership by the Oligarchs looks:
The second-richest guy in the world, Bezos, owns The Washington Post. He has now stated that the newspaper’s editorial page is moving to the right.
Surprise, Mr. Musk agrees. We must support independent news sources.
— Bernie Sanders ( @BernieSanders ) February 26, 2025

But Sanders doesn’t actually mean “independent media”. Because it doesn’t matter to him if the Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, George Soros, or the Communist Party. It only matters that it benefits Democrats and hurts Republicans, really.
It turns out that democracy doesn’t die in the darkness. However, bad companies like the Washington Post exist.
