NEW:The Washington Post is making major changes to its newsroom that are meant to broaden the outlet's coverage and reach a wider audience, according to a staff memo from executive editor Matt Murray obtained by Axios.
Scoop: Washington Post editor Ruth Marcus says she’s resigning after a column on Jeff Bezos’s Wall Street Journal-like opinion pivot was rejected by Will Lewis
RIP, WaPo. Just the saddest screenshots to get. An absolute abandonment of the principles of accountability of the powerful, justice, democracy, human rights, and accurate information that previously animated the section in favor of a white male billionaire’s self-interested agenda.
Former Wash Post top editor Cameron Barr severs ties to the companyHe writes that Bezos’ revamp marks an “unacceptable erosion of its commitment to publishing a healthy diversity of opinion and opinion” http://www.linkedin.com/posts/camero…
So Marty Baron says it plain: “It was only weeks ago that The Post described itself as providing coverage for ‘all of America,’” Baron wrote in his statement. “Now its opinion pages will be open to only some of America, those who think exactly as he does.” http://www.thedailybeast.com//ex-wapo-edi…
Massive encroachment by Bezos into The Washington Post’s opinion section – makes clear dissenting views will not be publishedI still have not felt encroachment on my journalism on the news side, but if Bezos tries interfering with the news side I will be quitting immediately and letting you know
Why I Left the Washington <em>Post</em>www.newyorker.com/news/essay/w… Well, interesting but misleading. The Grahams ran the paper in her early days. A great paper. Technology has altered everything for NYT, LAT, BG… Everything. Bezos no doubt took it as a loss leader. Things drifted.
American Jews have been pivotal in the battle for civil and constitutional rights, which makes it particularly cynical and loathsome that their alleged interests would be used as an excuse to attack civil liberties./1
Jewish and Muslim groups condemned President Trump for calling Senator Chuck Schumer "a Palestinian," saying that the president used the term as a racial slur. Trump made the comments at a meeting in the Oval Office on Wednesday.
Donald Trump thinks he should determine whether Chuck Schumer is a Jew, a blatantly antisemitic act. Remind me how many Republicans spoke out against Trump’s disgusting behavior.
As a Jew, I will never forgive Trump for ⚫️dining at home with Nazis ⚫️saying there were “very fine people on both sides” at Charlottesville ⚫️saying he’ll blame Jews if he loses ⚫️backing a self-proclaimed Nazi for governor of North Carolina ⚫️saying Hitler did some good things pic.twitter.com/q8tVDyninD
Donald Trump has claimed he’s better for Jewish Americans than Democrats, but according to a former senior Trump Organization executive, the former president reveled in making Nazi jokes around his Jewish employees. https://t.co/vccXvGPfUT
Thousands of Jewish people saying Not In Our Name takes me back to when many protested Netanyahu's DC visit.Mike Lawler told me they were “pro-Hamas.” I asked if the rabbis were also pro-Hamas.If they're protesting Israel, "yes."Lawler (Catholic) questioned whether protesters were even Jewish.
It is terrifying and maddening to be a pawn in this game. Jews are taught to help the stranger, as we have been strangers ourselves. We are taught to help, not oppress, immigrants.Not in our name.
Photo booths are making a comeback. The machine was introduced in 1925 by Anatol Josepho, an inventor from Tomsk, Russia, who had immigrated to the U.S., said Maxim Sverdlov, a photo booth maker. Placed near Times Square, a prototype became an overnight sensation. http://www.nytimes.com/card/2025/08…
Sad!
