The Washington Post is laying off a third of its workforce across both the newsroom and its business operations, a massive blow at a storied newspaper that has struggled in recent years to stay profitable. @GeoffRBennett speaks to @PostBaron, who was editor of the Post from 2012 until 2021, for more on the cuts and their implications.

Whaaaa?!

With his hat and his backpack. Thank you to everyone who demanded freedom for Liam. We won’t stop until all children and families are home.
