Trump Commends Jeff Bezos for Shifting Direction of The Washington Post

President Trump praises Bezos for recent changes at the Post, including a pivot toward free markets and personal liberties, despite backlash and controversy.

President Trump, in a Sunday interview, praised Jeff Bezos for what he described as a 'real job' in reshaping The Washington Post's approach under his ownership.
Bezos has overseen significant changes at the Post, including ending the paper's tradition of endorsing presidential candidates and refocusing its opinion section on free markets and personal liberties.
These moves have drawn criticism, with some accusing Bezos of trying to align the paper with Trump's administration to protect his business interests, though Bezos denies such intentions.
The changes have led to canceled subscriptions, staff resignations, and backlash, reflecting tensions over the new editorial direction.
Trump acknowledged that while he still faces hostility from much of the media, he views Bezos's recent efforts as a notable shift compared to the Post's previous stance during his first term.
