There is only one proven way to change corporate culture.
Fire all hostiles.
If that is the entire professional staff go for it.
There are plenty of folks who would be thrilled to replace them.
Let the rag die; sink the Bezos yacht and its billions with it. Who will care?
'Nuff said. Should be 1/5 trans, 1/5 Asian or Pacific Islander....
Is that why we point out here that 4 or 5 "journalists" had to write the daily stories such as "Disproven Trump Election Fraud Theory Brought Up By Stupid MAGA Fool."
“writers who have contributed to the free fall of the Post were apoplectic.”
and yet only a couple have resigned ... they know there is no where else for them to go, so they’ll stay onboard spewing lies and propaganda until fired ...
“There are plenty of folks who would be thrilled to replace them.”
and/or pay to reprint stuff from brietbart, justthenews, and the like ...
The core problem with what you are saying is the myopia of what its rooted in.
There is no such thing as a non-hostile journalist. They’re all ideologues, all of them. Some of the deepest most hard core indoctrination in universities is in the journalism classes.
This makes up a core of progressivism, they are not going to skimp on making sure they can produce their false narratives and in order to do that the machine needs to be top notch here.
But its more than that. The pen is more powerful than the sword. That’s a simple enough fact, but the reality is that then makes the journalist more powerful than the politician.
You can fire the whole staff, but then you’re left with no new staff to hire on the other side. A paper without anybody at all working there is nothing.
It’s very helpful for understanding, in a short study of Journalism Will Irwin did a number about “the power of the press”
Here is the audio book of that study, and that section about the power of the press is a section that I recorded myself. It explains a lot about this.

Its a long read and audio book but Public Opinion is really an expose from a Journalist’s point of view in regard to how he can manipulate public opinion through controlling the picture in people’s heads.

Where will non-advocacy journalists come from to replace those so deeply entrenched? Certainly not from today’s academia.
I would bet my left boob that virtue signaling d-bag is white.
Use AI to write reports.
Remain woke - everyone in DC area is woke. That's their market.
Easy money.
Bad management. You don’t let employees dictate policy.
We know right wing journalists exist.
Many of us read their articles right here every day.
Will any of this make a difference?
Newspapers seem to be a dying industry. A number of daily newspapers have gone out of business in recent years. Some others have gone to an internet only platform.
And while the circulation of the actual printed newspaper has been nosediving, they have not nearly made up the difference with internet subscriptions.
I’d love to replace them.
We rarely catch a local news or network news source. They screwed us over for so many years it's not worth giving them another chance. It will just make us mad to hear their far-leftist slants.
I so encourage everyone to drop cable and switch to only streaming and Over-The-Air. It is so worth it and it starves what has hurt our country and culture.

"We need the Washington Post back as a leading newspaper committed to traditional journalism."
No we don't. Let it burn. There are plenty of honest news outlets.
I do not remember ever thinking that the Washington Post was anything great.
The first time I heard Rush call it the Washington Compost, it was perfect.
"Saving" a stinking pile of #&@# is not a good plan.
.
I bet you’re right about that. That whole bit of sick, leftist Whites wanting to disadvantage themselves is just plain nuts. Even worms try to do what’s in their best interests.
If the WP will remain woke, why fire anybody? Let the parasites keep sucking on the host.
