Quote of the Day

I want to support the news reporting that occurs at the Post. Because I want to support the investigative journalism they do. Because I know that so much of what we know about politicians, including Kamala Harris, is because of the hard work that really superb reporters at the Post and elsewhere do every single day. And I can’t even imagine where we would be if we didn’t have a newsroom with that kind of talent and that kind of determination telling us what’s happening in our government and in other powerful institutions in our society. I understand why people are upset. I understand why people are canceling subscriptions. They want to make a statement of concern about what has occurred here. But they could be doing really long-term damage to our democracy, the very democracy which they are so concerned about.
The Washington Post’s decision to not endorse a presidential candidate less than two weeks before the presidential election, a decision reportedly made by billionaire owner Jeff Bezos, has set off a firestorm of criticism in the media world.
