No endorsement for the presidency race? Badly handled, but I understand why newspapers may not want to endorse anybody, instead just providing the information for readers to make their own decisions.

Screwing Ann over? Not great at all, which is why I subscribed to her Substack when it was first possible. But, I still wanted to support journalists there.

This one did it for me. I cancelled.

Somewhere, sometime I heard or read this:

"When a person is primarily driven by wealth and power, that person is not trustworthy."

If a newspaper is not trustworthy, why waste your time with it?

Pretty clear that propaganda pays and true journalism has inconvenient things like facts.

YES! I canceled the Post and moved to The Guardian where there is no Billionaire Bias. They support their excellent journalism through an endowment. They are based in the UK but have a strong US presence. Example: https://bsky.app/profile/justinsg.bsky.social/post/3liyofuycvs2r

To me ithis suggests the billionaires got together over lunch about a year ago and agreed they were all in on taking over the country.

When you have that much money what need to fear a mentally (and physically) declining old man who cannot speak?

Great!

Also:

CANCEL PRIME; GET YOUR REFUND:

1. Call—you’ll see why. 888.280.4331. Battle your way to a human being. Press 0. Etc. If you do it online, you can’t get a refund.

2. They will ask the reason: second reason to call. “Bezos is a fascist destroying the WaPo” will do.

3. They will calculate a pro-rated amount. Say no to the first offer. Settle on a real prorating.

4. Stay on phone till you get the email. Done. Took me ten minutes.

An annual subscription to The Guardian is cheaper than the WaPo, and their journalism is more honest.

This is viciously hilarious. Each character is perfect. And the idea beneath is so well thought out. As Mr. Buffett sang, "If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane." I look forward to every new drawing.

I find it an assault on personal liberty when he announces that his opinion writers can only write about what he wants them to. You can say what you want as long as you say what I want seems to be Bozo's mantra.

What a cast of characters! Perfect!

A Washington Post submission - by Timothy Snyder:

I am writing today in support and defense of personal liberties and free markets. I am writing today in support and defense of personal liberties and free markets. I am writing today in support and defense of personal liberties and free markets. I am writing today in support and defense of personal liberties and free markets.

Above reminds me of (I heard it somewhere.), the way Musk/Trump’s lies become “truth” to watchers of Trump media, that is,

when myths, untruths, are repeated loudly, over and over again on “faux news” outlets which have become the “go-to media of the public in their public places. While Trump-Media showed and repeated an untruth I mean lie 87 times (on every omnipresent news outlet), the true story is mentioned two or three times, then dropped.

Not a good way to win America’s attention.

After losing over 300,000 subscribers, the best people quitting, the bald headed bozo sinks lower to his knees to find the ring on those tiny hands. The big busted airhead watching it all. Perfect AT, who knew he would destroy The One Good Thing he had going for him.

I let my subscription end back in January. I was going to renew only because of Telnaes, Alexandra Petri and several other great columnists, but once Telnaes left, I said NO WAY to renewing.

I hope Petri, Milbank and the other good writers leave this week. The Washington Post’s owner is bent on making democracy die in darkness.

LATEST UPDATE:

To my surprise, WaPo issued a prorated refund. I have also Googled alternatives to Amazon Prime, and there are some. Cancelling that is a more direct message to Bezos.

I did as well. I canceled after Ann left, but re-upped to support the remaining journalists. This was the last straw. Bye, Bezos.

My knowledge of popular culture is clearly lacking. Who does the botoxed woman with the hair extensions and implants represent?

Bozo's trophy wife.

Not much of a trophy. I just googled her. More like “previously owned” or what my generation called “used”.

Oh my!!! I almost feel sorry for her. Apparently she thinks her looks are the only thing that makes her worthy of anyone’s attention. Truly pathetic.

If I were those plastic surgeons, I wouldn’t advertise either of these as “my work.”
