As a WSJ subscriber since the 1970s, provided by my employer, I find it interesting.
Seeing the revolt of the 280, I spend less time in the front news section.
Now the WSJ is an annual Christmas gift from our children and since my wife retired she tends to go for the print edition first.
The problem with the Wall Street Journal is clearly advertised in its name. It is not called the Main Street Journal for a reason. The people who work for Dow Jones & Company have no idea what fly-over America is about. They are simply shrills for globalist corporations.
Fact #1) The Wall Street Journal actually makes money.
Fact #2) The bulk of the Wall Street Journal subscribers are whites.
Therefore, the Wall Street Journal must be racist because white people are smart enough to read it and make money using it.
Welcome to 21st-Century liberalism.
Been a subscriber and daily reader of the WSJ for over 30 years. Have to because of the business I am in.
Last 5 years or so, has taken a fairly hard left turn - primarily in how it reports news, occasionally on its Editorial Page and often who it includes in its Op Ed pages.
Very discouraging.
NY Post is last remaining print paper worth reading.
Thank God for on-line news and Free Republic!

I’m with you, I don’t read the news articles as much as I used to. I pretty much stay for the columnists and editorials, that section of the WSJ is still fairly conservative. Kim Strassel and Jason Reilly are my favorites, Peggy on the weekend needs to resign or retire.
From the article: “The report argued that the paper should attract new readers — specifically, women, people of color and younger professionals — by focusing more on topics such as climate change and income inequality. Among its suggestions: “We also strongly recommend putting muscle behind efforts to feature more women and people of color in all of our stories.”
The WSJ is the only paper (digital) I subscribe too. If the WSJ wants to lose it’s profitability it can go ‘woke’ like the rest of those papers losing money.
Not unlike many many profitable enterprises - unfortunately White men and retirees support a lot of things.
