The path forward is we let them fucking fail. The whole premise of capitalism is you let industry fail. Stop bailing out billionaires.

If you like worshiping capitalism and CEOs then sure. Bringing CEOs to talk about how workers are the problem is all that network does.

[The sudden part came in the days immediately after the Oct. 25 revelation that Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos — the third-richest person on Earth — had spiked his editorial board’s long-planned endorsement of Democrat Kamala Harris over the GOP’s Donald Trump. ]

I don't give a shit what Jeff Bezos thinks about anything. We all know the WP staff endorsed Harris. The only significance of this is that Bezoes outed himself as a jackass.

Idk, there are good things in NYT. The Ezra Klein podcast is particularly thoughtful and exploratory over a variety of topics.

CNN is very lowest common denominator.

Ezra Klein's picture is in the dictionary next to the "neoliberal" entry.

Right before the election he was on a Bloomberg podcast doing a premature endzone dance promoting Kamala's suburbs-and-cheney strategy. The Bloomberg person asked about unions and Ezra pretty much said there should be consequences for the Teamsters not endorsing her after Biden 'bailed out their pension.'

How are they defining ‘loser’?
