JD Vance

I don't give a shit if he hires a few more conservative columnists.

It doesn't matter.

What matters is do they hold their journalism to anything like a high standard?

And if they don't do that, then to me, it's just wind addressing.

It's a step in the right direction.

I just think that unless you change the underlying journalism to make it more fair, it's going to be only a step in the right direction rather than fixing the problem.

You know, I mean, he can't go into the office and like read everybody's work.

OK, so let me give you an example.

There is a there's a journalist by the name of Matt Boyle who writes at Breitbart.

You know, Matt Boyle.

OK, so Matt is even though he writes for Breitbart and I know that most people assume that Breitbart is just this like right wing rag.

Matt is – he has one of the best contacts of journalists in Washington.

Like he knows what's going to happen in the country before most left-wing journalists because he talks to the liberals.

He talks to the conservatives.

He has allies on Capitol Hill.

I'd love to see the Washington Post hire a guy like Matt Boyle and say, Matt, go and do what you're going to do.

And obviously, it's not going to be able to have a political bias to it.

But go and investigate.

If you want to go investigate Kamala Harris's campaign, go and do it.

But that is what it would look like is empowering conservative and independent journalism in the same way that Jeff Bezos has empowered left-wing journalism.
