Over 400 Washington Post journalists have signed a blistering petition demanding owner Jeff Bezos visit the newspaper’s office to restore “trust that has been lost,” leading “readers to question the integrity of this institution.”
The letter, which was sent to the mega-billionaire on Tuesday evening and obtained by The Independent, comes as the venerable paper has suffered a mass exodus of reporters and readers following Bezos’s decision to scuttle the editorial board’s presidential endorsement of Kamala Harris.
