"The arrival of Bezos and Soon-Shiong to 'rescue' two major American newspapers has shown us how hollow were any hopes that billionaires will or even can make a difference in today’s economic and political climate."

@wdlindsy My cancellation is among these. I don’t know that it’ll make a difference to Bezos but I’m not throwing more money at him.
We need a new structure for journalism.

@nrmacdonald Yes, a point that definitely needs to be considered as one speaks of "aspiring" oligarchs here, I think.

@mlbellar I'm lost here. Probably so thick-headed I don't understand — and I know you mean to be funny and would like to understand!

@ramede I'd love to imagine that the other 100 million voted at all! I live in a state with one of the lowest voting rates in the nation, and truly don't get what people are thinking when they don't choose to vote.

@steggy Thank you for doing so.

@EBecker Thanks for telling me. I hadn't realized that. Makes it all the more interesting that so many people are reading that article, doesn't it, when the style section probably normally doesn't get those kinds of hits.

@mwmkbrady Thank you!

@mwmkbrady @philip_cardella I must have misunderstood Philip, because I thought that was what he was saying, and what I was agreeing with.

@Tom_Joad You've got that right.

more likely me being shroomed headed. Let's see...
Trump would be the man Jeff would love to run the IRS as he continues a rather extravagant sending spree on his new wife Lauren Sánchez. Plus I don't think how tight Trump was with Epstein gets enough attention

@mlbellar Thank you for the explanation. Yes, the media have danced around — deliberately so — how tight Trump was with Epstein. I suspect there are more stories there than we've yeat heard or may ever hear.
