Mr. Lewis revealed that The Post was in dire straits, with more than $70 million in losses over the last year and audience declines of 50 percent over the same period.

Looks like the WaPo will probably start to enshittify too. It's sad to hear; and it doesn't bode well for them. Undoubtedly their true journalism will no longer exist under the new leadership and everyone will be afraid to be bold or write anything too shocking.

The move reeks of corpo profit-chasing; and was probably ignited by their CEO falling for the usual Trump/Musk/Zuck garbage spew.
