1:01:50Now PlayingThe Washington Post is facing one of the most dramatic shake-ups in its history — and it’s happening under the ownership of Jeff Bezos.
In this livestream, we break down the sweeping layoffs and structural changes hitting the Washington Post newsroom, including the elimination of entire desks, the scaling back of international coverage, and the growing influence of cost-cutting and AI-driven strategies in legacy media. Once seen as a pillar of accountability journalism and democratic oversight, the Post is now being radically reshaped — raising urgent questions about the future of American journalism.
What does it mean when one of the richest men in the world slashes a newsroom that once held power to account? Is this a “strategic reset,” or a warning sign for investigative reporting, local news, and press freedom in the U.S.?
This isn’t just about one newspaper — it’s about who controls the flow of information, and what gets lost when journalism is treated like a tech product instead of a public good.
