The Washington Post is facing a significant financial downturn, projecting losses of $77 million, exacerbated by 250,000 subscriptions canceled in protest after a controversial decision by owner Jeff Bezos.
Staff at the Washington Post are expressing alarm over ownership changes and a dramatic loss in subscriptions, with fear about the future direction of the publication and potential staffing cuts.
With the cancellation of 250,000 subscriptions due to the non-endorsement of Kamala Harris, it highlights a growing unrest among readers and staff about decision-making and direction under Jeff Bezos.
