Chris Richards @chrisrichards.bsky.social · 14/03/2026Glad this story is being told but I’m extremely disappointed that it fails to mention that The Washington Post has laid off nearly all of its arts critics A decades-deep legacy of arts coverage has been destroyed here and it hurts our city and our world www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/b... 511228
dwightfisher.bsky.social @dwightfisher.bsky.social · 14/03/2026What a stupid lede. Reporting isn’t “productivity”! Does he think it’s a widget that can be stamped out faster on an assembly line? Not to mention that it’s all supposedly meant to increase profitability, when he earns the cost of running the paper in an hour’s worth of interest on his wealth. 010

volid.bsky.social @volid.bsky.social · 17/03/2026A shot across the bows for all legacy media. Big money + government level threats= compliance. Do you not see it that way? It's just my opinion. 010
José António Fundo @jafundo.bsky.social · 15/03/2026All he wanted was political leverage. He will gut the paper and loose the leverage. These guys are asinine. 000
