The Washington Post is facing significant leadership and staff turmoil following Jeff Bezos' controversial decision to reject an endorsement of Kamala Harris, leading to an exodus of top talent.
Two prominent reporters, Ashley Parker and Michael Scherer, defected to The Atlantic amid what has been described as a wider pattern of discontent at the Post.
Bezos defended his decision not to endorse any candidate ahead of the election, arguing that endorsements do not influence public opinion significantly, which has not quelled staff dissent.
The recent staff resignations and loss of over 200,000 subscribers indicate a broader crisis at the Post, coinciding with the controversial leadership change under CEO Will Lewis.
