Ironically, it reminds me of the fragile ego Ceausescu had during its era of dictatorship. Censoring everything that was against him. But who would've guessed that those billionaires can't accept the fact that people have different opinions?& they are allowed to, especially underpaid Amazon workers

I specifically subscribed to support journalism a few years ago, but once Bezo the clown put his thumb on the scale this election, I did not renew. Thank goodness Telnaes came forward, therefore confirming my decision to be the right one. There are many other options out there.

Soon-Shiong hasn't contributed megabucks to Trump since the election (unlike Altman, Zuckerberg, and Bezos - the three with the moneybags), but is now demanding that all editorials for the LAT be vetted by him for "bias". I think "putting lipstick on a pig" is the operative metaphor here.

The publisher and CEO, Will Lewis, spent the majority of his career working for Rupert Murdoch and Lord Conrad Black (a convicted felon pardoned by Trump in his previous term.) He knows the drill. Go along to get along.

Hey Jeff, I’m hearing a tune … “You’re so vain, you probably think this cartoon is about you …” (Thanks Carly Simon) You need to get over yourself, twatwaffle.

Just the beginning of suppression of all media except "right friendly" media....it will get much, much worse. The US is about to be completely transformed and the rest of the world looks on in horror at what you've allowed to happen to yourselves. (from a concerned New Zealander)

Thank You Ann Telnaes, Great Cartoon. I severed all my Amazon business over the Unendorsement' and the donations. You have made a loud clear statement. Jeff bezos, the appeaser has killed the WaPo.

voters & critics have had editorials, endorsements & cartoons pulled; posts throttled; votes challenged, gerrymandered & nearly overturned. Meanwhile, oligarchs had their taxes lowered, campaign spending limits eliminated, regulations undercut, companies declared people + Purchased SCOTUS & a POTUS

Billionaires just want you to believe they have your best interest at heart. They don’t like to be questioned or challenged about it. After all, they deserve to be treated like royalty in their mind. I know that’s generalizing but they would rather you generalize about each other and let them be.

No more freedom in the country of Liberty ? What about the famous quotation of Voltaire ? "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

Yup. That's Los Angeles Times owner/publisher Patrick Soon-Shiong, who similarly spiked an endorsement of Harris - he hasn't been throwing money at Trump, unlike the other 3 pictured, but is now demanding that all editorials be reviewed by him for "bias".

These “early adapters” to the new regime should remember that old adage, “Give them an inch and they’ll take a mile.” And they should read Timothy Snyder’s book On Tyranny. They think they know better. We’ll see.

I asked myself what wld have 2 exist 4 me 2 consider NOT endorsing Kamala/NOT printing Telnaes satire bashing tech chiefs ring kiss/I decided on govt contracts $20Billion+very large number of people working 4 my corps 4 over 10 yrs who cld suffer if lost govt contract. Answer-vengeful psycho Trump.

This is a quote from a neo nazi people mistakely attribute to Voltaire. Voltaire was from a time when the monarchy and religion were the major powers they knew who their rulers were.

Elmo has been silencing people for awhile now. He calls it “freedom of speech”. It really confuses the cult and they don’t know their heads from their butts anymore. Very sad.

There is no free speech at your job. Publicly shame your boss like that, and you'll be punished. She's naive about the role of the press. There is no legal obligation for media to tell the truth, for example.

Jeff Bezos is worth billions, has a great life running major companies, his wife to be is attractive and high quality but the douche bag has no sense of humor. If you can't laugh at yourself then you are missing out of the one thing our "creator" whoever that was gave humans to survive the flood!

The picture captures exactly my perception as a European. Most of us cannot understand how Americans put their democracy at risk for a few dollars more. I never was on X and will never to buy a Tesla. Now I will also avoid Amazon, Facebook and Apple. Am I missing something?

That once great, now marginalized news outlet’s ownership is good at boxed deliveries, arbitrary anti remote work policies, and sexting. Defending or even understanding the value of a free press isn’t in Bozos’DNA. That took courage for Ann to walk away after years of earning a stellar reputation.

The media has given up all its credibility and is no longer there to serve the truth. At this rate, criticizing rich people will be considered a hate crime in this country.
