Embattled WaPo Publisher Met With Conservative Editor for Advice on Recruiting More Right-Wingers
Briefly

Recent developments at The Washington Post indicate a significant shift towards a conservative editorial stance, as CEO Will Lewis seeks to recruit conservative journalists. This follows various tumultuous changes, including Jeff Bezos' direction to alter the Opinion Section in support of personal liberties and free markets, sparking staff resignations and internal dissent. Lewis met with Eliana Johnson from a conservative outlet, indicating strategic efforts to transform the Post's identity. Financial struggles continue amid these controversies, raising questions about the paper's future direction and management.
