Jennifer Rubin has resigned from The Washington Post, citing concerns over owner Jeff Bezos' actions perceived as accommodating Donald Trump. She criticizes corporate media's perceived failures in democracy, notably Bezos' influence over editorial decisions and financial contributions to Trump. Rubin plans to co-launch a new media outlet, The Contrarian, with a pro-democracy focus, condemning what she views as a deterioration of journalistic integrity and independence under billionaire ownership. Her exit reflects broader tensions within the media landscape regarding accountability and the role of money in journalism. The Washington Post faces ongoing challenges with readership and revenue.
