The Washington Post planned to endorse Kamala Harris over Donald Trump before owner Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder, decided against it, the newspaper reported.
You're viewing a single thread.
Bezos has tons of federal government contracts. When Trump was president last time he went after Amazon and others he disliked to get their contracts cancelled. Bezos is concerned that if Trump wins, Trump could fuck with his contracts.
That's the reason. It's fucked up and more evidence of why news media shouldn't be owned by fuckhead billionaires. Shameful day in WaPos history. Cowardice. Grovelling to placate Trump for the benefit of the paper 's owner.
Tin foil hat: I am somewhat concerned that our oligarch overlords seem to be hedging in a way that they think Trump might win.
I'm extremely concerned. LA times backing out too. There's no reason not to, unless they're afraid the psycho toddler dictator is going to be holding the reigns next year. Fucking traitorous cowards, money over country.
