Washington Post Loses 200K Subscribers After Endorsement Decision 📰

The Washington Post reportedly lost over 200,000 digital subscriptions following its decision not to endorse a candidate in the presidential election between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. The move prompted three editorial board members to step down from the board, though they remain on staff. Publisher and CEO Will Lewis attributed the decision to his belief in supporting reader independence, while a conflicting report claimed Amazon founder Jeff Bezos influenced the choice.
