Washington Post Editorials Omit Bezos Conflict Disclosures | JQJO

The Washington Post faces scrutiny after three recent editorials touched Bezos-linked interests without initial disclosure. The latest defended President Trump’s plan to raze the White House East Wing for a ballroom, even as Amazon helped defray costs; a disclosure was added only after veteran editor Bill Grueskin flagged the omission, with no note of the change. Similar lapses accompanied pieces promoting microreactors and self-driving cars as Amazon and Bezos hold stakes. Amid an overhaul of the opinion section under new editor Adam O’Neal, resignations and mass subscriber cancellations mounted, and former editor Ruth Marcus warned trust is at risk.
