I swear there are more WaPo readers on FR than anywhere else considering the number of posts of WaPo articles. /s

The WaPo workers are a joke.
Their writing is a joke.
The paper is a joke.
And the old joke, “Flush twice, it’s a long way to D.C” becomes less and less of a joke each passing minute.
And a journalism degree has now degraded to the respect of one in Underwater Lesbian Sex Dancing.

> has lost 500,000 subscribers

How did they have that many readers to lose?

[Huskrrrr]

Too bad, so sad.

Wokeness is for losers

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

New vocab word: perspicuous = clear, plainly stated.

Carry on.

Apparently Bezos is getting tired of pumping huge sums into the money losing Washington Post to keep it going. He is beginning to layoff the snowflakes. Owning this paper had brought him much ridicule, not the prestige he sought.

Wokeness is a Dead-end

[Angelino97]

Doesn't matter. Last I heard Bezos was worth $140 billion. His pocket change alone can keep the Washington Post solvent for the rest of his life.

As long as we aren't paying for it, I suppose its OK

At least students of the latter can make a lot of money selling videos of their senior class presentations. :)

Lie most, I never click on those links. They don’t get all that www ad click money.

If they are operating like a business, they will adjust their editorial content to re-find their market

Being woke is more important than survival so they won’t give a crap and continue their losing ways.

“Washington Post Loses Hundreds of Thousands of Subscribers as Readers Everywhere Reject Wokeness”

they’re rejecting their lies as much as their wokeness: why pay for lies when you can get all you want for free on the internet ...

[PGR88]
