Edward Champion"And my point was not only about what columns would get through the filter, once installed; it was about maintaining the trust of our readers. I asked to speak with Lewis.

jackhutton 🇺🇸[The New Yorker]: Why I Left the Washington Post.Owner Jeff Bezos wants to transform the Opinions section of the paper, where I worked for forty years.

Flipboard News DeskColumnist Ruth Marcus has quit the Washington Post, saying publisher Will Lewis killed an op-ed critical of Jeff Bezos' edict about the paper's opinion section. Lewis' decision "underscores that the traditional freedom of columnists to select the topics they wish to address and say what they think has been dangerously eroded," Marcus said.
