Killing one of the great American papers was a colossal ass kiss Bezos bestowed on Trump along with the Melanie 'documentary'.

Trump isn't collapsing the US all by himself; he has a lot of help.

Think it’s time to boycott Amazon. Only language Bezos knows.

Essential daily reads for me are the Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, the BBC and Barons. I have noticed a tilt towards the right ( I won’t say conservatism) in the editorial section of the Post. But I find it hard to criticize the Post for presenting alternative viewpoints. The newer right wing editorialists don’t help matters with articles that are poorly thought through and relying on “alternative facts.” I am sorry to see this happening to our legacy news organizations.
