I get the feeling that Jeff Bezos has decided to brazen it out and keep former Murdoch apparatchik Will Lewis in the CEO's post at the Washington Post.
After all, it's only journalists who are saying Lewis should go. These are people who continue to give active support to Elon Musk, who makes Lewis look almost honorable and has made his contempt for journalism absolutely clear.
And don't forget journalists' endemic short attention span.
I hope I'm wrong, but fear I'm not.
