Remember earlier this week when the Left had a full-scale meltdown after Jeff Bezos promised to pivot the paper's op-ed section to, you know, freedom?
Well, give them credit, those lefties are more than willing to put their money where their mouth is:
The Washington Post has reportedly lost tens of thousands of subscribers in an apparent reaction to a decision by the outlet's billionaire owner to change the editorial focus of its Opinion Pages.
The Post has lost 75,000 digital subscribers since its owner and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos announced changes were coming to the Post Opinion section, NPR reported on Friday citing internal subscriber figures.
Jeff Bezos is like, "We're gonna focus on freedom," and tens of thousands of subscribers are like:
Note that this recent wave of un-subscriptions comes after the Post lost literally hundreds of thousands of subscribers when it failed to endorse Kamala last fall:
Still, even the loss of 75,000 lefties may not be enough to hurt the newspaper. Apparently they're doing just fine at the outset of the second Trump administration:
A source at the Post told The Hill on Friday the outlet had sold more subscriptions in the first six weeks of 2025 than it had during the entire first quarter on 2024 and noted it had nearly doubled subscription figures this month than during the previous February.
Seems like they're doing okay — and maybe that free-market pivot will help them do even better!
