I've read his op-ed and believe what he says is both sincere and accurate. > Nobody is saying the Post's reporting on Trump was innacurate or not credible People are in fact saying that and have been for years, which is why Bezos felt he had to intervene. There are people saying that in this very thread. Bezos left them alone for 10 years and the result has been massive drops in the proportion of people telling pollsters they trust journalism. He states clearly in his op-ed that this is why he is now intervening editorially at the WP: the staff's approach to being trusted has objectively failed (yes, there's that word again).

> People are in fact saying that and have been for years, which is why Bezos felt he had to intervene. That's not what Bezos said. He didn't say the reporting was innaccurate or not credible. > drops in the proportion of people telling pollsters they trust journalism If an ideological movement distrusts and attacks anything that disagrees with it, the solution isn't to appease it. Of course they will attack and 'distrust' anyone who criticizes Trump or violates their ideology; that's very clear.
