Trump Commends Bezos for Overhaul of The Washington Post

Jeff Bezos' changes to The Washington Post, including a new editorial direction and ending presidential endorsements, draw praise from Trump and criticism from journalists.

President Donald Trump praised Jeff Bezos for 'trying to do a real job' with The Washington Post during a recent interview, signaling a shift in their historically tense relationship.
Bezos has restructured the newspaper's opinion section to focus on 'personal liberties and free markets,' leading to resignations and backlash from staff and readers.
The Washington Post has ended its tradition of endorsing presidential candidates, a move that reportedly contributed to subscriber losses and internal dissent.
Former columnist Ruth Marcus and other staff have criticized the changes, with Marcus resigning after her column opposing the new editorial direction was rejected.
Bezos has defended the restructuring as necessary to rebuild trust with readers, denying accusations that the changes are aimed at currying favor with Trump.
