Marty Baron

He thought it was pretty funny.

He's the one who wanted that motto.

He didn't even like to call it a motto.

He called it a mission statement.

And he said that it was an idea that people would want to belong to.

And what I'd like to see today and worry about today is that maybe that mission doesn't belong to him anymore or he doesn't belong to that mission.

So I've been concerned about his behavior since Trump reentered the White House.

And clearly, I think Bezos was concerned about reprisals against the source of his wealth, which is Amazon, and then the object of his passion, which is Blue Origin Space Company.

Both of them have significant contracts with the federal government.

Amazon has a lot.

Blue Origin would like to have many.

And so I'm concerned that he's prioritizing these other business interests

over the post.

I don't happen to think that's quite the reason for the cuts or at all the reason for the cuts more recently, but it's something that has made the post financial predicament far worse than it needed to be.

And that's what I'm worried about.

Yeah, he did.

We spent two years on that, believe it or not.

I was glad when it was finally over, we didn't have to talk about it anymore.

That was a phrase that Bob Woodward had used for many years.

It was sort of an adaptation of what a judge had once said.
