- brutusborn 3y agoI wasn’t aware of this, I thought most of the funding was from government/corporations and ads? Which news orgs are charities?
- marcus_holmes 3y agoWashington Post is the obvious one - owned by Jeff Bezos and there are indications it changed its editorial stance to be more pro-billionaire since he took it over. It's not exactly charity if the owner uses it to influence government tax policy to your benefit ;)
