Washington Post
The Washington Post is a major American daily newspaper published in Washington, D.C. It is the most widely circulated newspaper in the Washington metropolitan area and widely read around the country. The newspaper has won 47 Pulitzer Prizes. It employs around 800 journalists and had a 2015 daily circulation of 356,768. Its digital circulation was 1,000,000 in 2018.
Jeff Bezos bought the paper in 2013. Tensions between he and the newsroon have continued; in 2024 and 2025, multiple personnel resigned over the paper's non-endorsement of Kamala Harris and editorial changes advanced by Bezos.
In the years-long competition among Fox employees to demonstrate the most obsequiousness to President Trump, it seemed unlikely that anyone might be able to surpass Sean Hannity’s robust lead. Maria Bartiromo, though, is making a late charge.
She was always in the running, of course. An interview she conducted with Trump in April 2019 was in the style of a sixth-grader interviewing her loquacious parent for a Career Day assignment. A month before the election, she let Trump ramble for an hour about the risks posed by mail-in voting, an obviously false argument that Bartiromo did literally nothing to contest.
In an interview Sunday, though, things were quite different: Bartiromo let Trump delineate his nonsensical claims about purported fraud for only about 45 minutes.
