This is some bullshit.
Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos has replaced publisher Katharine Weymouth with a co-founder of the newspaper’s competitor Politico, the company announced Tuesday.
Weymouth’s departure is the end of an era of Graham family involvement with the Post. Her great-grandfather bought the newspaper in the 1930s, and her uncle Donald Graham sold it to Bezos last August for $250 million.
She’ll be replaced by Frederick J. Ryan, the founding CEO of Politico and a former Reagan administration official.
Anyone who thought that Amazon ownership of the Post was going to be good for American journalism can put away that childish naivety.
