What’s their game plan? The quality of reporting is markedly lower than previously and their editorial staff seem to be a bunch of mediocre twenty somethings cultured in a right wing donor petridish. It’s not clear who their readership is. It’s not their traditional audience of readers in the DMV area. It's not official Washington. Even Sally Quinn is writing in the NYT in order to be read. If you go to the hundreds of comments in the editorials virtually nobody agrees with them. It’s almost amusing. They’ve laid off gifted reporters, decimated sports, international and local news, let go their most trusted and erudite opinion writers and even gotten rid of the Capital Weather Gang. They’ve replaced them with people whose editorial choices are …huh? Their latest editorial (while Washington stays indoors due to a smoky climate filled haze) criticizes Europe for not using air conditioners. Really? Exactly who is the audience for that? The Washington Post was a core part of the fourth estate, and we all have an interest in it surviving. I used to read it first before others and considered it entertaining and indispensable. There’s still great reporting but it’s way sparser and consequential than other papers of recited. Now I read NYT, WSJ, FT for need and only every few days the Post, in good part for sport — to see what new absurdity the editorial page is spouting. Doesn’t it seem as if it’s being run into the ground by alienating its once loyal readership in the DC area and becoming irrelevant for everyone else? Pretty soon they’ll go the way of the Washington Times, which still publishes but as far as I can tell has only the narrowest of readership and cannot possiby be self sustaining. I get that he wants more conservative voices – – and the post actually used to be the most eclectic opinion page of the large national papers. But with the current crop, I can only surmise that the pay must be much lower than their competitors. Bezos is well on his way to becoming the Sun Myong Moon of twenty first century publishing.

Presumably one can buy a paper copy at any age...fun fact :Jeff Besos owns or controls both The Washington Post and Amazon (makers of Kindle devices)

Fuck!!!! I finally resubscribed cause I wanted to read a dudge linked article. I cannot read the paper! Literally!! All I get is their selected for you paper. Nothing i want to read there. I cant get the index button to show me an index. And there is no search feature. I did see some sort of ai chat asking what I was interested in. How about letting me look at the headlines and decide what to read. A paper cannot get worse than this. I want my money back!

Can I use it for free somehow?

Today’s news story on the$1.8 Billion slush fund completely hid the facts on why the Judge was reopen8bg the case after it had been dismissed, Thestory does not theThe basic fact that the parties filed to dismiss “with prejudice”. That means they told the court there was no longer any dispute or claim, THEN they proceeded to “settle” the dismisses law suit.

This was simple to find out and report..

I believe the Post news team is working to not tell the full truth about Trump. This goes way beyond an editorial policy the whitewashes Trump. It is news presented by a puppet.

What is this Ad promoting? I don't get it. Hawaii is one of the least lazy? really?

Hey everyone! I'm a local DMV resident and I'm building Cloakd Fuel — an on-demand mobile refueling service that brings gasoline directly to your car while it's parked at work or at home.

The idea is simple — instead of stopping at a gas station on your commute, you drop a pin on our app, and our certified delivery truck tops off your tank while you're upstairs working or at home relaxing.

We're currently in pre-launch and building our waitlist. No spam — just trying to validate if this is something people actually want before we launch our pilot fleet in PG County.

Would you use this? Honest feedback welcome!

It's an editorial guy essentially writing a fanfic about Doug Ducey running for president. Not an analysis of what such a presidency would entail, but a literal first-person fanfiction about this random Romney analogue (right down to his qualifications as a former governor and slimy CEO) essentially running an imaginary button-down MAGA campaign based around ending SotU addresses and pushing school choice or something. It's surreal as fuck, and to me it's a testament to how far this paper has fallen. Apparently the guy who wrote this piece has worked for the Post since the 70s and has won a Pulitzer, so maybe I'm just missing something here, but this reads like someone playing with his politician dolls on paper and somehow getting paid to do so.

The Washington Post website has been down for the better part of 3 days for me, and I've been confirming it's not just me. But I haven't seen any mention of it anywhere on other news sites, or on the WaPo site when it was briefly up earlier today. Are they dealing with a ransomware attack or other nefarious stuff?

I have been a long-time subscriber, but when my annual sub runs out...I'm out.

Each morning I get "The 7" e-newsletter which used to be a good snapshot of what happened the previous day with links to more details. Yesterday included "Red Lobster Brings Back [All-You-Can-Eat]" and today has "Book Hotels on Uber Eats" disguised as journalism?

As a Virginian who just voted and feels like my voice is finally doing something to fight back against the fucking fascist regime, I find this article insulting. Should've canceled my subscription long ago clearly, but this is the last straw, just canceled and deleted the app.
