Over 200,000 subscribers flee 'Washington Post' after Bezos blocks Harris endorsement
Briefly

The decision to refrain from endorsing a candidate has led to unprecedented cancellations of digital subscriptions, reflecting the polarized political climate and deep frustrations of the readership.
Former Executive Editor Marcus Brauchli emphasized how unprecedented the situation is, pointing out that the mass cancellations indicate a disconnect between readers and the decision-making process at the Post.
Chief Executive Will Lewis stressed the decision to remain independent as a return to the paper's roots, but many employees question whether this came at a strategic cost given the political climate.
Brauchli highlighted the emotional energy surrounding this issue, suggesting that readers felt moved to take action through cancellations in response to the perceived abrupt change in editorial policy.
