Washington Post Loses 10% of Digital Subscribers After Jeff Bezos Quashes Kamala Harris Endorsement

This move caused more resignations in protest from The Post's editorial board, and Bezos attempted to explain his reasoning in an op-ed, but only succeeded in further exposing the lack of trust in the media.
