""All - after two years of transformation at The Washington Post, now is the right time for me to step aside. I want to thank Jeff bezos for his support and leadership throughout my tenure as CEO and Publisher. The institution could not have a better owner. During my tenure, difficult decisions have been taken in order to ensure the sustainable future of The post so it can for many years ahead publish high-quality nonpartisan news to millions of customers each day. With gratitude, Will""
""Employees and supporters gathered outside the Post's offices on Saturday to protest the drastic cuts. "Each and every day our readers give us a roadmap to success. The data tells us what is valuable and where to focus," Bezos said in a statement on Saturday, his first public comments since the layoffs. "Jeff, along with Matt and Adam, are positioned to lead The Post into an exciting and thriving next chapter."""
Will Lewis departed after two years as publisher of The Washington Post. His tenure included buyouts, shrinking coverage, and recent layoffs that eliminated hundreds of journalist positions, including foreign affairs reporters. Employees and supporters protested outside the Post's offices in response to the cuts. Jeff D'Onofrio, who joined the organization in June 2025 as Chief Financial Officer, has been named acting publisher and CEO effective immediately. Ownership signaled confidence in new leadership and emphasized reader data as a roadmap for focus and value as the organization moves into its next phase.
