Jeff Bezos is the owner of The Washington Post.

In the annual public surveys about trust and reputation, journalists and the media have regularly fallen near the very bottom, often just above Congress. But in this year’s Gallup poll, we have managed to fall below Congress. Our profession is now the least trusted of all. Something we are doing is clearly not working.

@molly0xfff @quota_atypique Hmm…

Americans don't trust the news media

Jeff Bezos is the owner of The Washington Post

I wonder if there's some logical relation between those two points 🤔

@molly0xfff "Something we are doing is clearly not working."

Angry goose meme, where a goose is chasing someone who's running out of frame. Goose asks:
What's not working, Jeff?
What exactly is not working?!?!
