Washington fasting owner Jeff Bezos criticized liberal commentators after his announcement on major changes in the work of the work of work on Wednesday, and critics accused him of bending his knee to President Donald Trump.
New Yorker’s David Remick joined MSNBC “Morning Joe” on Thursday to talk about the post and said, “This is a terrible tragedy. This is Pentagon’s paper and Watergate paper and more.”
“A Jeff Bezos bought a Washington post for half the price of his ship, and he treated it as a rubber gum, which is a terrible tragedy,” Remick continued. He claimed that Bezos “casts hands and kisses the ring of the President of the United States,” out of fear of the president, “who acts as an initial author.”
Bezos posted on Wednesday that the announcement site will be completely restored, focusing on “writing every day in support and defending two pillars: personal freedom and free markets.” David Shipley’s opinion editor also stepped down.

Publishing and Executive Director of Post, William Lewis, also announced a statement on the changes on Wednesday, saying: “It’s not about not being involved in any political parties to any political parties. This is a crystal clear about what we are advocating as a newspaper. It is a critical part of serving as premiere to publish news throughout America and all Americans.”
The post came under fire after Bezos stopped the editorial page to approve of former Vice President Kamal Harris 2024 because of Trump, which made several employees leave the work. The work supported former President of Biden in 2020 and Hillary Clinton in 2016.
Former Washington Post Editor Marty Baron He also scored a post during a conversation on Wednesday “Morning Joe” when host Joe Scarborough asked him to talk about the stretch, which he said was shocking.
“I advocate for free expression. You know, there is in the first amendment. And newspaper organizations have always honored free expression, having many views on their thought pages.” Said the Baron.
“But Bezos now just excludes it. And he says that only his point of view will be presented on these pages. And this is truly the betrayal of the heritage of the Washington post. And I think it is a betrayal of the idea of free expression,” he added.

Axios founder Jim Vandehei said “Morning Joe” that Bezos is among more owners of media companies who have “won”.
“I am surprised that he did not just turn off the page with an opinion,” Vandehei told MSNBC. “Put all your money in reporting if you want to be” Paper for the whole America ” – what is the way you describe it. You probably need a lot of journalists in America. And so the idea, a kind, replicates a magazine on the Wall Street or economist, and then say,” Hey, if you disagree with our opinion “simply sounds strange.”
CNN -Lovo Abby Phillip had two panelists during her show on Wednesday night, who said Bezos’s last announcement was just part of the problem.
“Now I use the hashtags #broken Times and #brokenpost. The titles in both papers, I mean, are constantly excluded, constantly trying to interfere with what is happening,” said Jeff Jarvis, a professor at Stony Brook University.
“We are in the midst of a totalitarian fascist coup in this country. And when we don’t call it, when soft pedals, when we don’t have a real discussion about it, can utter those words here, we can run that discussion, but you won’t see those words to the New York Times or Washington Post,” he continued.
Another panelist, Touré, author at SPSack, agreed and added: “If we were honest, there should be a permeable inscription on CNN -II MSNBC all day,” We are currently in dictatorship. “

Jarvis also referred to the Besos’ focus on personal freedom and free markets.
“It’s a funny game of words that happens here. I mean, who doesn’t believe in individual freedoms? Who doesn’t believe in free markets? Until a month ago, we lived in a democracy, in a capitalist country. We are now in oligarchy and plutocracy and things have changed,” he said.
Jarvis added, “He signals that he will use such fictional words to say,” I am with Trump. “And as you said, that’s his work.
This move also encouraged criticism of distinguished Democrats, including the senator of California Adam Schiff.
“Under the guise of ‘personal freedom’ progress, the Washington Post will limit the freedom of its editors to publish an opinion that do not improve their owner’s business interests,” Schiff said.

“It turns out that democracy is dying in the hands of the oligarch,” said envoy Morgan McGarvey, D-Ky.
Politicov Michael Schaffer wrote in the column For the output magazine Wednesday that democracy was “dying in the dark”, a reference to the slogan of the Washington Post.
“Personally, announcing that he dramatically diverted the editorial line, and in things he would not even start undoubted attitudes, Bezos added another sharp example to the narrative that represents a serious threat to the image of the mail: the idea of its owner does not interfere with the product to howling from his new Donal Trump.
