Rubin expressed disappointment with how mainstream media, including The Washington Post, has failed to uphold the principles of a robust and aggressive free press during a critical time.
In her resignation, Rubin criticized the corporate ownership of media outlets, asserting that they have compromised journalism's mission and betrayed audiences during an essential moment for democracy.
Rubin's new project on Substack, The Contrarian, aims to combat authoritarian threats to democracy with contributions from notable voices who prioritize integrity and independence in journalism.
With a tagline of 'Not Owned By Anyone,' The Contrarian will feature various media formats, signaling a break from traditional corporate media structures that Rubin feels have failed the public.
