Jeff Bezos will take this as an opportunity to fire more good journalists from the WaPo newsroom who had zero influence on his own, personal decision to suppress the endorsement of Kamala Harris written by the editorial board which is independent from the newsroom. So. Yay, people! Less journalism! Hope you’re happy now! https://www.npr.org/2024/10/28/nx-s1-5168416/washington-post-bezos-endorsement-president-cancellations-resignations

@jwildeboer I don't understand what you mean by this.

Stripped of meaningful ways to protest a system, when people choose the only remaining way, that's a bad thing? What other options could there have been?

@antijingoist As Bezos personally decided to suppress the endorsement of Kamala Harris, I personally decided to cancel my Amazon Prime subscription and keep my WaPo subscription.

@jwildeboer that assumes everyone had both?

@antijingoist I said “personally” for a reason.
