The troubles at the liberal Washington Post are nothing new. The paper has lost millions over the last year and has even considered replacing journalists with AI bots. Now things are getting even worse. Sally Buzbee, the executive editor is stepping down and the paper’s CEO recently held a meeting with the staff to inform them that people are not reading the content they are producing. It is an election year and there is no shortage of news, but the Washington Post is flailing. What does that tell you? FOX News reported: WaPo boss sounds alarm over dwindling audience in heated staff meeting: ‘People are not reading your stuff’

The article implies that the staffers are clueless wokesters. I suspect that most of the staff are not. They are NOT journalists. They are NOT Americans. They are propagandists pushing a corrupt Ultra Liberal agenda. They KNOW that they are out of step with America and are trying to CONVERT America to their twisted views. They are using the Waa Poo as shelter from the coming storm and spitting into the wind. The problem they face is that America, and frankly, ALL countries require sources of income to support their activities. The Waa Poo is facing economic collapse because no one is buying the garbage they are selling. And, despite their Ultra Liberalism, the Waa Poo staffers are spoiled by the top end salaries they get. The roof has been blown off their little shelter, like it has off of CNN (and other Liberal propaganda media) and the rain is pouring down on their heads. They are whining because they fear for their sheltered, cushy existence; their personal survival. The problem is they are not getting the good feelz from their audience any more. Their audience is feeling threatened by the outcomes of their agenda and are also in survival mode; a survival that can best be accomplished without a Waa Poo and its ilk. And, to emphasize, it is Trump that has delivered karma to them. Since he accurately branded the media "Enemies of the People", they have hated and feared him because they dreaded this outcome. They are being confronted with reality and they despise it, and Trump. Woke the media may be but their reaction is like the rats they are, fleeing the sunshine that has exposed them. They fear extermination. People exterminate rats because they spread filth and disease, exactly as the media has been doing. The media fears the sounds of traps snapping closed.

It's the kind of news that you're peddling, stupids. That's why nobody's "reading your stuff." Then there are these reasons: 1. “Democracy Dies in Darkness” (what democracy?) 2. Staffers reportedly tried to make the issue all about race (white men v.) and gender (entitled white women) 3. Buzbee was uncomfortable with an offer to run a different division of the paper (she should be elevated, doggonit; she is woman) 4. She also reportedly had urged Lewis to hold off on implementing such changes until after the election, which Lewis refused. (In other words, she wants to run things her way. Men are stupid to her.)

When journalism stopped being objective, people stopped reading it. "News" articles routinely referred to "baseless" claims of election fraud and called the riot on the Capitol grounds an "insurrection." I don't read "news" articles by the NY Times, the Washington Post or the AP because I know they will be opinion pieces, not the news.

I don’t see anything changing at the Compost.

They are incapable of letting go of their radical leftism. It’s their entire identity. Without it, they are nothing.

You're right, poster # 13. The enemedia is incapable of changing their stripes. The dullards are too brainwashed and ensconced in their marxism to see any other path in life other than dictatorial rule by the "annointed". They truly are useful idiots, and have been so for decades. IMO, it's been downright obvious for at least forty years, especially concerning American politics.

Video clips of Democrats and legacy media journalists dismissing The Post’s scoop on Hunter Biden’s foreign influence-peddling as “Russian disinformation” went viral on Wednesday after the FBI confirmed during the first son’s Delaware criminal trial the laptop containing evidence of dirty deeds was authentic. Network anchors and contributors, ex-US intelligence officials, Democrats in Congress — and then-candidate Joe Biden himself — all denied the accuracy of the report on the contents of the so-called “laptop from hell” in October 2020.

Reuters stated that the naval exercises will put Russian warships and long-range bombers in the region and will likely include port calls in Cuba and possibly Venezuela, Russia’s closest allies in the region. The exercises would be the first conducted by Russia in the Caribbean region since 2019, when the Russian military sent the Admiral Gorshkov warship to Havana and a Russian air force plane to Caracas.

Former Donald Trump chief White House strategist Steve Bannon must report to prison to begin his four-month sentence for contempt of Congress under a new order from a federal judge Thursday. The longtime Trump advisor has until July 1 to surrender himself to the authorities, under a ruling by Judge Carl Nichols. Bannon was back at a D.C. courthouse Thursday where prosecutors urged the federal judge to send him to prison immediately. Bannon was previously sentenced in October 2022 to four months in prison after being convicted of Contempt of Congress for failing to provide information or testimony to the House January 6 Committee.
