Washington Post expected to lay off 'many dozens' in coming week after cartoonist quits in protest: report

Washington Post staffers are bracing for layoffs as morale in the newsroom has plummeted in the wake of an exodus of top talent from the Jeff Bezos-owned broadsheet, according to a report.

The imminent staff cuts are expected to impact "many dozens" of employees in the business division -- with an announcement possibly coming down as soon as this week, according to Oliver Darcy of the Status newsletter.

News of the anticipated layoffs came on the heels of Friday's resignation from the Washington Post by Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Ann Telnaes, who quit in protest of the paper's decision not to publish a cartoon that depicts Bezos and other billionaires kowtowing to President-elect Donald Trump.

The Washington Post suffered another blow as one of its top political reporters, Josh Dawsey, is set to depart the publication and take up a position with the Wall Street Journal, Darcy reported in Status over the weekend.

...

Last week, two other senior political reporters for the Washington Post -- Ashley Parker and Michael Scherer -- left the publication to take up new positions at The Atlantic, the magazine owned by Laurene Powell Jobs, widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.

In late October, two Washington Post staffers quit its editorial board in protest of Bezos' decision to block an endorsement of the Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Bezos said the move to block the endorsement was made in order to bolster public confidence in his newspaper's impartiality.

But readers of the newspaper were angered by the move. As many as 250,000 subscribers canceled their memberships as a result, according to reports.

I don't think any of these woke media outlets can ever reclaim the figleaf of nonpartisanship. They will never, never again be considered authoritative or honest.

Therefore, there is no point in attempting to "re-position" CNN or the Washington Post as "centrist" and "objective." Anyone who wasn't a full on TDS #Resistance leftist stopped going to these sources years and years ago, and they're not coming back. And as these outlets shed audience, they catered harder and harder to the remaining audience of mentally ill leftwing lunatics, which caused even Democrat normies to flee, and left their remaining audience base even more partisan and weird.

There is no way -- none -- to reverse this, so it's my business advice that they not even try. The only course is to accept that they are permanently diminished and marginalized as fringe outlets of the intensely woke ghetto. They have to downsize until they hit the right, profitable level for a niche conspiracy-theory outlet.

They will have to shed at least half of their staff.

#SorryNotSorry. You effed around, and now you're finding out.

Meanwhile, the perfect symbol of Biden and the press -- for she soon will be working, of course, for our very objective, truth-telling, reality-based media -- congratulated her staff for making her success possible.

Wait, what?
