Mrs. Hatrack here, borrowing Hatrack's posting privileges.....
This may be an unpopular opinion, but our household is not yet ready to cancel our Washington Post subscription. I understand and am sympathetic to all the reasons people have chosen to cancel, and we are watching the Post closely ourselves for all the reasons people have chosen to cancel over the past few months, but they are still doing some important and informative journalism at a critical time. And as flawed as the Post is right now under Bezos' ownership, MAGA world would be ecstatic if the Washington Post went out of business.
Today's front page, off the top of my head, has the story about Musk's allies (are any of them even government employees? have any of them undergone any kind of background check?) trying to get access to the Treasury Department's payment systems, and there is another story about Tulsi Gabbard stating, under oath this week, that she had not been aware until it was brought up the day of her hearing that a cleric she visited with in Syria had threatened to unleash suicide bombers against the U.S. But records from 2017 show she was aware of it and her office was trying to minimize any negative publicity about it. Also an important story about the air traffic control tower at Reagan International Airport being understaffed, and several other important stories.
Our household is hoping Bezos might sell to a buyers group that is more committed than he is to an independent press, and there are some efforts being made to put together a buyers group, so for now we are hanging in there on our subscription. (But we, too, are supporting other outlets like The Guardian, etc.)
Just some thoughts - we respect that others have made different choices.
