Frickin’ snowflakes. Most adults have gone through and survived many RIFs during their careers. Did they think they’d have their jobs until they died? Really?

Maybe they can get jobs along side the fired pipeline workers at the John Kerry Solar Panel Factory.

I have not seen the financial statements , but just in general, isn’t the newspaper business downsizing just about everywhere? Turn call newspapers in Major cities having to cut back expenses, cut back staff , in order to stay in business?

From what I hear, internet subscriptions to newspapers have not nearly filled the Gap caused by the decline in actual printed newspaper circulation.

And advertising income for newspapers has dropped way off in the past couple of decades.

Maybe these people think they are special because the Washington Post is special and is immune to market forces?

...a news organization whose core values include transparency and accountability.

Are they talking about New Twitter? They sure as hell aren't talking about the Washington Post.

Yeah, that was pretty abrupt. I’d have thrown the staff a big Chinese dinner and had all the fortune cookies say, “Hope your New Year is filled with joy. You’re fired.” Go out on a high note.

The WaPo decided to abandon journalism to advocate propaganda for the DNC, and now theyโ€™re realizing thereโ€™s no money in it. Let Bezos foot the bill.

“”The mood is really grim,” one staffer candidly told me. “People are just so livid right now. It’s bad. Just bad.””

if things are REALLY that bad, they can always quit and learn to mine coal ...
