The Time of Monsters with Jeet Heer

How Jeff Bezos Betrayed the Legacy of The Washington Post


Listen Later

Writing in The Nation, Pamela Alma Weymouth drew a contrast between Kay Graham, her late

grandmother who was publisher of The Washington Post when it fought Richard Nixon’s

administration on The Pentagon Papers and Watergate, with the current owner of the

newspaper, Jeff Bezos. Unlike Graham, Bezos has been all too willing to bend the knee to a

corrupt president. I talked to Pamela about Bezos and other contemporary corporate leaders

who are undermining journalistic integrity at a moment when it is needed more than ever.
