The Washington Post is in a major rough spot. The once iconic publication has lost a ton of its traffic since 2021 and their unhinged lefty writers are deserting them.

Now they’re attempting to rebrand. They are dropping their ‘democracy dies in darkness’ slogan in favor of a new one that’s not much better.

It’s not clear how this is supposed to turn around their losing streak.

Storytelling is accurate.

I would call it creating a "narrative".


To: bitt

Yes, interesting story-telling...take your pick...

“Trump is a nazi”

“Trump is a fascist”

“Trump hates democracy”

“MAGA are crazy”

“Trump speaks Like Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini”

All it provides is fiction, so this is accurate.
