I cancelled my subscription when bezos canned Harris endorsement. Don't know what else I can do. Is Bob Woodward still at the Post. His resignation would be a BIG deal.




I think he's still listed on the internet as Associate Editor at WaPo, but not sure how involved Woodward is in WaPo's current state under Bezos. Both Woodward and Bernstein blasted Bezos in a statement when he pulled the paper's Kamala Harris endorsement last-minute fearing Trump's wrath.

Their economics expert , Ms Rampell, is an anthropology major from Princeton. Grew up rich, went to Princeton for anthropology, who does that that isn’t rich, and now lives in manhattan in high rise exclusive apartment.

But she understands the US worker.

They have fallen so low.

Does this move by Bezos look like the act of someone who anticipates the Democrats coming back into office anytime soon?
