The Washington Post faced backlash after deciding not to endorse a candidate in the presidential election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. The newspaper reportedly lost over 200,000 digital subscriptions, with three editorial board members resigning. Publisher Will Lewis broke tradition by not endorsing a candidate due to readers' independence. The decision was reportedly made by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. Some staff members saw the silence as supporting Trump, leading to resignations. The Post has denied Bezos' involvement but stands by the decision.
