Former Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin joined MSNBC on Saturday and tired her former employer, accusing the Washington Post of trying to “ingest” himself with President Donald Trump.
“They seem to think that their press outlet should be deceived, it must calm down, it should not bother Donald Trump so much. And so you see, for example, refusing to approve Donald Trump, which was the editorial position I both Los Angeles Times, owned by another billionaire, and The Washington Post, ”she said.
Rubin, a former conservative writer who announced during Trump’s first administration that she was no longer a conservative, recently left the newspaper after its owner, Jeff Bezos, stopped the editorial board from approved Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 elections .
“You also see these billionaires giving to the President of the United States. And by plunging it up there in Dais. This is not how a free independent press behaves. Their obligation is for the public, not for themselves them, to advance their businesses, and of course not to ingest themselves with Donald Trump, “Rubin added.
Rubin said that Paul Krugman, a former Columnist of the New York Times, spoke about reviewing journalism in Columbia why he left the newspaper in 2024, and said he was being deceived in Times.
“Paul Krugman merely had an interview for the review of journalism in Columbia, explaining that he was told to write less than he was editing more. This is Paul Krugman, a Nobel is the winner and a phenomenal voice on the economy, in It was essentially deceived.
Krugman claimed during the interview that he was being treated very differently than he was in the past in the Nyt.
Rubin joined several high -profile employees who also announced departures for other exits, including reporters Josh Dawsey, Ashley Parker, Michael Scherrer, Tyler Page and Leigh Ann Caldwell, Columnist Charles Lane, Health Editor and Veteran editor, Matea Gold.
Rubin announced a new media she formed with Norm Eisen, a CNN legal analyst, for whom she pledged was “very pro-democracy” during the MSNBC interview.
In a statement about her decision to leave the post, Rubin said the letter had gone from evil to bad.
