The Washington Post’s Bloodbath Might Be The Best Thing For It

The Washington Post is facing turmoil after refusing to endorse a presidential candidate in 2024. However, on the other side of the short-term backlash, the paper may have an opportunity to reinvent itself as a more centrist source of news.

William Lewis, WaPo’s chief executive officer and publisher, said Oct. 25 that the paper would not be making a presidential endorsement for 2024 or any presidential endorsements in the future in an attempt to return to the organization’s “independent” and “nonpartisan” roots and allow readers to “make up their own minds” about major political elections. Subsequently, former WaPo executive editor Marty Baron threw a temper tantrum online, and on Monday, NPR reported that over 200,000 readers canceled their paid digital subscriptions.

In the wake of Lewis’s announcement, WaPo’s editor-at-large, Robert Kagan, resigned. Other activist reporters and editors within the organization may also resign. Is that a bad thing? It might be a bad PR look in the short term, but it’s cleaning house in the long run.
