She hit a nerve, good for her. Glad to see that the cartoon is still getting exposure because she’s not wrong.
Seems that the mockery dies in darkness too
Link to her, the cartoonist’s, Substack:
# Why I’m quitting the Washington Post
# Democracy can’t function without a free press

[Here is a link to the cartoon that Jeff Bezos doesn’t want the world to see.](https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F185b68c6-9dba-4d15-9282-28cc9dc6aba8_1725x2100.jpeg)
I’m kind of surprised it was so easy to end American democracy. Seems Americans, especially the wealthy ones, hate it. They teach us such high minded stuff about it in school but hardly anyone in power actually respects it.
> “Not every editorial judgment is a reflection of a malign force,” Mr. Shipley said in the statement. “My decision was guided by the fact that we had just published a column on the same topic as the cartoon and had already scheduled another column — this one a satire — for publication. The only bias was against repetition.”
What. How often does The Post reject editorial cartoons on this basis?
So the money that they’re throwing at Der Fuhrer is it payoffs? Bribes? Protection? Or just to assuage his 5-year-old child like ego? Let all who give money to this Pariah remember history will judge you harshly, and there will be a day of reckoning.
The Washington Post is just another rational, educated voice destroyed. The plan was never to make money. The plan was to see respected institutions and voices bankrupted and marginalized. We think we are hurting the oligarchs by unsubscribing, but that’s what they want. They want it to tank. It serves a greater purpose destroyed. Yet I don’t see the alternative, I can’t bring myself to keep giving them my money in the hopes the Post rises again.
Streisand effect
