WaPo CEO brutally tells employees: We're losing money because no one is reading your stories

Will Lewis, the Washington Post's publisher and CEO, told whiplashed staff on Monday the paper needs to do something radical to make the company profitable because readership has drastically declined.

The meeting was held after executive editor Sally Buzbee abruptly left the Washington Post after coming from the Associated Press in 2021.

“We need world-class journalism every single day, and the people that are coming in to help us do that will be a real benefit to the organization,” he said. He said he “really enjoyed working with Sally” and “wish[ed] it could have gone on for longer, but it couldn’t," according to Vanity Fair, based on people who were in the meeting.

The meeting became tense at times because some staffers felt Buzbee's departure was not handled correctly and they objected to a woman being replaced with another white man. The issue of diversity within the paper's leadership was brought up several times. Lewis said the lack of diversity is an issue but that the main problem is how the nation's capital newspaper is hemorrhaging money.

“We are losing large amounts of money. Your audience has halved in recent years. People are not reading your stuff. I can’t sugarcoat it anymore,” Lewis said. “So I’ve had to take decisive, urgent action to set us on a different path, sourcing talent that I have worked with that are the best of the best.”

The Washington Post sent out a quick note on Sunday about Buzbee's departure in order to try to prevent getting scooped by the New York Times, one of the reasons employees felt Buzbee was disrespected. Politico noted the Times did beat the Post to the announcement anyway.

Despite the urgent news about the company's dire finances and dwindling audience, an employee who spoke to Vanity Fair was still hung up on the lack of diversity.

“I don’t think she deserved to go out this way,” the staffer said, noting that in conversations with their colleagues, people “don’t feel good about the fact that the first female executive editor of TheWashington Post got a one paragraph goodbye note at 8:30 p.m. on a Sunday, and that she’s being replaced by more white men we don’t know.”

The New York Post reports Lewis impressed upon people they needed to "get with the program."

Lewis cannot “expect to bring in new readers” when he’s “abolished all diversity from the leadership," a source similarly told the NY Post.

All the marks of a company destined for failure. Hmmm...something RADICAL might be to try being FACTUAL instead of putting out nothing but editorialized Left-wing perspectives/opinions... you know-- try THE TRUTH for a change.

Comments:

1. He's going to target Republican poll watchers and anyone who wants to audit the election results.

2. The masks are off, folks. They’re not even trying to hide it anymore. There’s nothing they won’t do, because they have proven to all of us that they own the judiciary, they own the legislative branch, and they own the executive branch and all of the bureaucracies. Question them on anything and, “Oh, that’s a nice life you have there. Shame if something were to happen to it.”

Chief Justice for 11th Circuit Court of Appeals Tells Clerk to Trash All Further Complaints Against Judge Cannon and Make it Public

When the extreme leftists cannot get their way by manipulating the legal system through Lawfare, they come unglued.

The tribal leadership of Norm Eisen, Mary McCord, Andrew Weissmann and the larger Lawfare community have been waging an open media campaign against Florida Judge Aileen Cannon because in the Jack Smith documents case Judge Cannon is not giving them what they want.

It’s somewhat personal to the Lawfare crew because from the outset it has appeared that Eisen, McCord and Weissmann write the briefs and motions that Jack Smith files with the court. If the Lawfare effort is being rejected, dismissed or diluted by Judge Cannon, the Lawfare tribe takes it personal and make appearances on leftist media networks, broadcasts and social media telling their followers to file judicial complaints against her.

In response to what the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals calls an “orchestrated campaign,” Chief Judge William Pryor of the 11th CCA has published a blistering order [SEE HERE], informing the clerk of the court not to accept any more complaints and to trash them.

My comment: It is all out lawfare being conducted by the Democrats.

BREAKING: Federal prosecutors just entered Hunter Biden's laptop as evidence in the case against him

Remember when the entire media, the intel community, and his father told us all it was fake in 2020 and Twitter censored anyone talking about it?

Not So sure about this Now.

Fact Check: Fred Trump was detained at KKK rally but there's no evidence he was supporter

Details surrounding the detention of Fred Trump at a 1927 KKK rally are scant. Claims that he was directly involved in the event are misleading.

Bidet is not going to be the Democrat party nominee. He will however, be the predetermined bag holder if by chance they fail to keep Trump out.

I have heard from family and sources that those they know who are voting for Biden are actually not voting for him nor would they if anyone else other than Trump was running against Biden. They hate Trump that much, their vote is only a Hate Vote...
