It doesn’t matter if their endorsement of VP Harris had an effect on the outcome of the election, it would have showed that they do care about democracy, I’m so happy the newspaper is taking a dive;
“ In the tumultuous period that followed the paper’s decision to spike its endorsement of Kamala Harris, it lost 250,000 subscribers—10 percent of its readership.”

The thing is that Bezos doesn't GAF about either the paper as an institution or about the views of his subscribers. He's only concerned about an audience of one. It's a measure of the times that he would put that one person above millions of subscribers (and can probably afford to); another measure is that nobody else is pointing out that this is scandalous abasement unworthy of a democracy.
@DavidSalo I hope that place falls. Now mist if my sources are from SubStack .
