Great annual Press Freedom Lecture by cartoonist Ann Telnaes, who quit the Washington Post when her cartoon got rejected.
“The decision to kill it was an instance of obeying in advance”.

NPR has Massive Pro-Trump Bias
It is Shitmedia.
The American people need to know that.

If legal residents can be disappeared, then ordinary American citizens need to be very worried as well. And I am sure the Techbros have been compiling their 'little lists' to provide fodder for an increasingly fascist government without a care for the constitution let alone the law.

Hey #WaPo, what law made #DEI “illegal?”
#DontObeyInAdvance
When this nightmare is over, I propose everyone at the WaPo gets a haircut.
Protests in N.Y. Town Force Release of #Immigrant Family Detained by #ICE
from #WorldOutlook
By world-outlook.com on
April 14, 2025
[contains article from #TheWashingtonPost, with an introduction and background information from World-Outlook.]
"The article below first appeared in the April 10 edition of the Washington Post. It reports on successful protests in Sackets Harbor, in upstate New York, that forced Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to release three kids, and their mother. They had been wrongly arrested during an ICE raid in the nearby North Harbor Dairy Farm in late March.
The story offers an example of what can be done to resist some of the most extreme assaults on working families caught in the mass-deportation dragnet the #Trump administration has unleashed since taking office in January. "

Is it just me, or does this seem a little tone deaf? I mean, look at where we are--in a Constitutional crisis. But thank God Lauren Sanchez is in space.

Photos point to Israeli tank fire in deadly strike on U.N. guest house
Experts say images obtained by The Washington Post show blast patterns and shell fragments that are consistent with two #Israeli tank shells. The #IDF has denied responsibility for the strike, which killed a European aid worker.

Bezos must be so proud. I wonder if and how the #WaPo has covered this.
#WaPo Millions in the #US take this drug. #Tariffs might complicate their care.
#Heparin is cheap and essential...
"Experts say past events offer a preview of future risks. In 2008, a viral disease in pigs in #China caused a sudden shortage of the raw material used to make heparin. Some suppliers responded by mixing in cheaper, harmful substances, which led to 80 deaths and hundreds of serious side effects in the U.S."
Editors at Jeff Bezos’s
@washingtonpost were even more dismissive of the #handsoff pro-democracy movement on 4/6.
More than 1 million Americans expressing their concerns got a tiny box.
The next day, WaPo editors chose to devote half the #FrontPage to a personal achievement - a new hockey scoring leader.
A Putin-supporter who plays in the NHL.

Got an email from the Washington Post urging me to re-subscribe (lol, no), and when I clicked the "unsubscribe from emails" link at the bottom, I got this.
THEN WHY AM I STILL GETTING EMAILS, JEFF?
#WaPo: Supreme Court upholds order directing Trump officials to return wrongly deported man [Kilmar Abrego García]
Watch as Trump admin and El Salvador play chicken: procedural issues, grandstanding, El Salvador demanding extradition orders,...
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Eugene Robinson has quit the Washington Post to protest Bezos’s rightward turn. #wapo #washingtonpost https://www.thedailybeast.com/pulitzer-winner-quits-washington-post-and-slams-bezos/
Mainstream corporate media outlets like #CNN and #WaPo won’t persist with "#WallStreet is doomed” headlines for long. Prolonged negative coverage can hurt their own revenues and stock performance. Sooner or later, they’ll start reporting a “rebound” in the markets—or push narratives that support one. Relying on these platforms for economic insight is pointless, since their vested interests routinely take precedence over facts. Same pattern with corporate media across the world.
@philmeyer
The L.A. Times caved to tRUMP. As did #WAPO. I cancelled both.
