   I mean, I guess I’m glad Bezos at least had the decency to say outright that he bought the WaPo to turn it into a propaganda outlet for oligarchs. Other MSM owners haven’t even had the guts to own it. NYT editors still out there pretending they’re the gold standard of journalism. Feh. At least Bezos said it.

   But…what @raganwald said. I call BS on his supposed principles, and I’m doubly glad I cancelled my WaPo subscription when Bezos bought it. https://social.bau-ha.us/@raganwald/114071460335169986

     @inthehands Let’s enthusiastically recognize Bezos for his unequivocal declaration of support for personal reproductive liberty, open borders, free trade, the rights of workers to organize and collectively bargain, etc. Make him say, “Not that kind of liberty.”
