This is the most gut-wrenching story I've ever worked on. So many deaths. So little accountability. And a long quest to find the two shadowy figures behind the website. w/@gabrieldance

It has the trappings of popular social media, a young audience and explicit content on suicide that other sites don’t allow. It is linked to a long line of lives cut short.

The WaPo is 10 bucks a month, less than 3 silly coffee drinks. Even though I work for The Times, I daily find news stories and opinion columns in The Post that enlarge the world for me. #whyIsubscribe

I hate billionaire-owned media as much as the next person, but if we don't pay for news that's how it'll always be. Also I'd miss @petridishes too much if I cancelled. (Also a mountain of kickass journalism that makes the world better every goddamn day) #whyIsubscribe

One of my all-time favorite @washingtonpost stories, by @john_hudson. For those outraged by Bezos' decision, is there a way for you to speak or act that doesn't involve turning away from the work of these reporters? #whyisubscribe https://t.co/n18e2denjo

Home to first bylines I ever recognized (@ThomasBoswellWP, @MarkMaske, Wilbon, Kornheiser), place I still constantly turn to (politics, National features, Mideast, investigative, books, and obviously sports), still who I mean when I refer to "The Post" #WhyISubscribe

I worked at @washingtonpost for 18 years and remain a devoted reader of its extraordinary journalism. I echo @Jo_Becker's comment about Post reporters: “They fearlessly hold power to account, including in some cases their own bosses, and they deserve your support.” #WhyISubscribe

I will remain a subscriber of the @washingtonpost . Some reasons why? The important work being done by the visual forensics team led by @ElyseSamuels + live coverage of world events by @libcasey + TikTok content by @davejorgenson. #WhyISubscribe #InSolidarity @PostGuild 🙏🏽

I subscribe to the @washingtonpost because it provides excellent, vital news and analysis; because it employs journalist friends I both admire and envy (@marycjordan and @sullivank among them); and because, dammit, we need more light and less darkness.

The Washington Post is one of America's great institutions, even though when my friends there kills us on big stories I sometimes wish it weren't so great. The Post delivers essential, groundbreaking journalism that the world needs more than ever. #whyIsubscribe

I subscribe to the @washingtonpost because of the investigative work from reporters like @NickMiroff, whose ground-breaking investigation into the proliferation of fentanyl in the U.S. was one of my favorite pieces from 2023. #WhyISubscribe https://t.co/kxeTjyL3Cq

The Washington Post traced the fentanyl crisis from the back alleys of northern Mexico, to official Washington. U.S. border authorities are now overwhelmed.
