Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) revealed on Saturday that she’s cancelled her subscription to The Washington Post following the newspaper’s decision not to endorse a candidate in this year’s presidential election. Cheney, in a talk with The New Yorker editor David Remnick at The New Yorker Festival on Saturday, emphasized the “fear” tied to the decision before going after the newspaper’s billionaire owner, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
“When you have Jeff Bezos apparently afraid to issue an endorsement for the only candidate in the race who’s a stable responsible adult because he fears Donald Trump, that tells you why we have to work so hard to make sure that Donald Trump isn’t elected,” said the Republican per The Hollywood Reporter.
She continued, “And I think also, why we ought to not forget what has happened, forget who’s taken brave and courageous stands. And I canceled my subscription to The Washington Post, just saying.”
The condemnation from Cheney, a harsh Trump critic who has been stumping for Kamala Harris on the campaign trail, comes after the Post’s editorial board reportedly drafted an endorsement of the vice president before Bezos “reviewed” it and ultimately decided against its publication.
