In reply to the discussion: Editor resigns, subscribers cancel as Washington Post non-endorsement prompts crisis at Bezos paper [View all]Jrose
(1,358 posts)over 16,000 readers stated they would cancel their subscriptions.
The Washington Post's credo has been for years that 'democracy dies in darkness'. If 2024 presidential candidate, Trump, gets elected, democracy will die in the dark shadow of media silence, especially the silence of a major newspaper such as the Washington Post.
Only one candidate -- VP Kamala Harris -- represents democracy and human rights. The other one is on a mission to become a fascistic, narcissistic and racist tyrant.
WaPo is saying, in essence, that the bringer of darkness is equally as acceptable as the champion of democracy and human dignity.
I have therefore discontinued my decade-long paid subscription to Washington Post unless and until it shows what it stands for.
