The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds!

In this episode, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly take a deep dive into the recent events at the Washington Post, where the newspaper decided not to endorse a presidential candidate for the first time in years.

This decision, directed by owner Jeff Bezos, has led to significant backlash, including 200,000 lost subscribers and concerns about the paper’s principles. Matt and Tom discuss the implications of this move on leadership, company values, and stakeholder trust, providing insights into the governance structure of newspapers and the potential fallout of abandoning established principles. We also turn to company values and if you are going to violate them, there should be sufficient justification. Finally, what a second Trump Administration might mean for corporate compliance.
