Explains why the Washington Compost is so desperate to censor others such as Twitter.

There's no ad revenue in propaganda when others publish the truth.

The Washington Post was founded in 1877 by democrats specifically to advance the agenda of the democrat party. It has stayed true to its original mission.

i’m guessing they'll refuse to be laid off ...

I have a recurring dream that I get fired from a job, but keep going to work anyway. As long as I avoid the boss, I can keep putting my timeslips in and get paid.

They just need more hot leaks from the FBI and they’ll be fine.

More 'leaks' from corrupt FBI thugs and MORE news packets from DNC War Rooms... (with the appropriate number of seemingly self-serving stories so 'played' editors can think their using 'judgement' when choosing the 'less self-erving' crap.)

The WaPo was near bankruptcy when Jeff Bezos bought it.

It still loses money. He keeps it afloat.

The WaPo’s democrat protection racket is Bezos’ perfect insurance policy against anti-trust actions against Amazon.

We don’t need as many people to write stuff nobody reads.

Why not just let the Democrats write the political stories, the CDC can write the medical stories, Disney can write the entertainment stories, Brittney Griner write the sports stories, ACLU can write the legal stories, PETA write animal stories, Planned Parenthood write the abortion stories and Greta Thunberg can write stories on the environment.

The first to go will be those who don’t know the difference between effected and affected. Followed by those who can’t use its and it’s properly. There should be only 2 genxers left and no millenials.

What is their business model anyway?

Pre-internet their big money maker was want ads. Likewise the New York Times. But those days were already gone 20 years ago.

Punchline is some fired staff from CNN, MSNBC and ABC news are now being let go from their new gigs at the Washington Post. What now?

British play Beyond the Fringe (Peter Cook and Dudley Moore)
had one coal miner talking to another.
1st: “I sometimes think about what will happen if I can’t do this job any longer.”
2nd: “How?”
1st: “You know if I just can’t do the mining work because my mind fades and I can’t think any more. Useless for coal mining.”
2nd: “Then what would you do?”
1st: “If it got really bad I would just quit mining and get into judging.”

Great meme....

Too bad the leftist “journalists” aren’t even that good at their jobs. Staplers or not.

“As long as I avoid the boss, I can keep putting my timeslips in and get paid. “

that actually happened for real to a brilliant CIA agent named Gust Avrakotos, which was documented in the book “Charlie Wilson’s War” ...

Gust applied his many and varied spycraft skills to the job of keeping his job by avoiding those who might see him at CIA headquarters and fire him ... he was there but could never be found ... he recruited janitors and other low level CIA headquarters personnel to keep him informed of the higher-ups, and thereby could avoid being seen or even contacted to attend meetings ... it was hilarious to see a CIA spy penetrating CIA headquarters for the purpose of avoiding being fired ...
