Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos defended the newspaper’s recent move to halt presidential endorsements, calling it a step to regain public trust. In an op-ed, Bezos explained that endorsements can convey bias, undermining media objectivity. He admitted the timing was flawed, saying it should have been implemented well before election tensions rose. He dismissed claims of quid pro quo, asserting that no presidential campaign influenced the decision to end endorsements. He also refuted any connection between the decision and a meeting between Trump and Blue Origin CEO Dave Limp.
