It's not surprising that left wing "journalists" are going out with a bang after being fired. They weaponize media to their advantage wherever allowed. If the CEO is to be believed at all, this is a completely false claim.

Not surprising. All the left does is lie about people.

Edit: Of course this is flagged. The left instinctively does this when they have no counter-argument

This isn't specific to the "left". People abusing power is a story as old as time, no matter whether it's the media or something else used.

I mean, sometimes there are legitimately terrifying people who try to silence their employees by holding their power structure above them. It's not exclusively left wing or right wing, this is a phenomenon throughout history that is fairly apolitical in nature. If you Google "presidential controversy" you'll certainly find damning examples on both sides of the aisle.

There is nothing terrifying about a CEO controlling what his or her company does. The level of personal attacks and gaslighting coming from left wing employees is undeniable. Once you let them into an organization, they will destroy it. Many companies are now acting to rectify the situation. I'm certainly rooting for WaPo to shed its reputation as an activist-controlled organization.

Edit: Flagged again. The left cannot stand being called out directly for their bad behavior. Accountability is what they fear the most -- and they will face it in spades!

It’s owned by Jeff Bezos. Do you consider Amazon to be left wing?

No, I don't consider Amazon to be left wing.

We're flagging your comment because it is entirely unrelated to the topic and most people capable of reading it can determine that you're trying to be inflammatory. We refuted your nonsense rhetoric one time already, we're not going to bother paying attention to you if you don't want to expand the dialogue you pretend to care about.
