Too many in the media are Cowards and are Afraid of Trump and are using him to stick it to the American people and suck them dry! Instead of "hard hitting" journalism, we are getting a Trump sane washed media landscape. Proof that a Free Press is needed now more than ever. Too much money (Billionaires), in too few hands (Billionaires), is corrupting our country on all levels. Just more examples of the REAL threats to American Democracy and Freedom!!! And they will ALL be on display at the Coronation of King Donnie. DO NOT watch it or attend it!!! And keep your flags at half staff in honor of a decent human being Jimmy Carter!

Sadly not surprising about WaPo. Based on his recent behavior, I doubt Bezos will meet with the staff, rather he'll probably replace them with right-wing authors who will print what they're told. If history replays itself that is, which it seems to be lately.

Trump will surely save TT for now to make him look like a hero. Not to mention tell his minions he was responsible for the cease fire.

What does the 60-90 reprieve mean?

Perhaps add the word “day” after the 90?

That makes sense. Didn’t know if it was an ownership breakdown but that didn’t make sense either.

Aaron, you’re doing an excellent job … but ease up on the self-congratulation a little.

I am glad they are standing on business, but it's sad to see that this is what it has come to. Media will continue to be silenced--and voices will cease to be heard.

Biden in a bold move didn’t sign the order to ban TT and is leaving it to Trump. So now republicans will have to quit whining because it’s their leader in control now. Smh. Republicans were louder about the ban than Dems. Now they can’t blame Dems.
