Apparently she's pissed that Bezos wants the Post to be more neutral in its reporting.

And as we all know, Democracy dies when the media isn't fully biased.

MAGA unto others as you would have them MAGA unto you!

Dogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring—it was peace. — Milan Kundera


The gift which I am sending you is called a dog, and is in fact the most precious and valuable possession of mankind

People like her see themselves solidly in the neutral center so anything that we would consider even the slightest right of extreme far left is automatically extreme far right to her.

Who ARE these people, these "high profile" staffers I never heard of?

The only names I recognized in the linked article were Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump, Howard Kurtz, and Kamala Harris.

Trump won in 2016. And again in 2024. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

They're the people that think their yellow journalism, is more important than facts.

You can tell by the article, that she has the most extreme level of TDS! Nothing else matters to her, she must keep the yellow flowing.

Tangent: Kamala staffers have found a new home.

It appears that a whole "Trump is disinformation" industry is ramping up (again). It would be interesting to follow the money of these various entities.

So Leftist propaganda is a cornerstone of a free press and a protector of democracy?

I think their reasoning is along the lines of: "see, democracy is only a few letters off of the word democrat.  Therefore, they are synonymous".

The feral government is the only group in the known universe that can promulgate a 26-page form that collects two pages of information accompanied by 24 pages of incoherent instructions, and proclaim at the bottom of page 26 that the document complies with the paperwork reduction act.
