Jeff Bezos, very rich guy, is losing big money owning the Washington Post.  In 2013, the Amazon titan bought the liberal newspaper for $250 million, and it has been all red ink since then.  The paper may lose $100 million this year alone.

 

Also, the President of the United States doesn't like it.

 

So, Jeff is making changes. He told his top editorial guy, David Shipley, to stop the quasi-socialist point of view and adopt a free speech/robust capitalist marketplace posture.

 

Shipley promptly quit.

 

Former Post Editor Marty Barron, who turned the Boston Globe into a woke buffet, lambasted Bezos for, well, not being a far-left guy.

 

That was pretty strange since Bezos sails around in a yacht the size of Portugal.

 

The "new" Washington Post probably won't make any money either, but the times, they be a changing.  Under President Biden, the committed left reached its high water mark.  However, the Biden administration was such a disaster that those who backed it are now paying a major price.

 

It's kind of sad to see the legacy media disintegrating but that's what happens when ideology wipes out fair play.  The trend now is "Go, Trump!"

 

And that wealthy rascal Jeff Bezos knows it.

 

Enjoy the weekend.
