The Washington Post backed out of a "Fire Elon Musk" advertising order. The advocacy group Common Cause signed a $115,000 agreement with WaPo. You can see the two-page ad here: firemusk.org

"Billionaires Shouldn't Rule America"

Comments

Billionaire oligarch Jeff Bezos is looking after his fellow billionaire oligarch. These two are leading such difficult lives, you almost feel sorry for them. I hope they can make ends meet this week.

Fealty will be expected.

Didn't Bozos sign a fat contract with the DOD?

You can bet that was threatened.

Fealty is demanded. Most corrupt government in history.

Woodward and Bernstein, thru the Washington Post, helped topple Richard Nixon. Now look at WaPo. Oligarchs like Jeff Bezos or Teflon Musk can never spend all the billions they have, neither will all their descendants. By Bezos withdrawing the ad, he sides with Musk pilfering the US. Why subscribe to WaPo and give this oligarch more of our money? Boycott WaPo, Amazon, Tesla, and any of their monopolies.

When billionairs n buy important news sources, those sources of real informsyion turn into s**t! Now the WAPO is that1 Alternative sources of real news will be found; the bastards will not shut doen the truth! So Jeff, you bought a successful newspaper; what do you have now? A Trump rag no one pays any attention to. Your ROI is evaporating.
