Like 5 people total would've seen that comic if it wasn't blocked 😂

[tonysolar]

Democracy died at WaPo, in the spotlight.

[mathieuleader]

Mickey being the only one coloured in makes this cartoon really pop and stand out

[cococonlin]

Bezos sucked the soul out of Whole Foods.

[kalrandom]

The cartoonist got a message out with full media coverage for free, absolutely beautiful.

[skapur]

Freedom of the press is freedom of the owner of the press. You are free to start your own newspaper if you want to take advantage of press freedom

[vintagetrikesandquads]

Now do a commentary on the millionaires and billionaires who gave Kamala 1.5 billion to blow on a losing campaign.

[lam]

Oligarchy? More aptly, we’ve snoozed or smoozed our way to kleptocracy. “The game” lost?

[shadi]

Reading the comments made me realize that a lot of Americans are accepted and ready for the rule of the oligarchy!
So many comments expressing that you should not and it is stupid to criticize your employer. Disregarding that this is freedom of freedom press we are talking about here.
And a lot of those comments are angry at Krystal!

[heymatt]

Krystal is back baby. Love the segment. Keep it up

[godfathaofyo]

"free speech only means from government, your actions have consequences" journalists/political cartoonists really have this holier than thou attitude. We do have a free press. Your boss didn't like the work you did. You can go self publish if you want. You're not sitting in some jail somewhere.

[steveh.]

Wherever the power goes so goes those addicted to power.

[KHouse]

Although Bezos certainly wouldn't like the cartoon, I bet Trump would it.

[richardhay]

I'm a Trump supporter. I think the the cartoon should have been published. I think Trump would love it!

[DCzero]

Making fun of your boss in public with the company's resources is normally a bad career move and it's a bit strange that youd be the type of person to make this point and ever work for the guy at all. It's probably good she left

[matts]

Why would Bezos want to pay someone to make a a comic about him?

[RyanFagan_RealEstate]

Is this breaking points or the Kyle kulinski show?

[philsalley]

The cartoonist resigns because the WP rejects her cartoon, which leads to far more people seeing it. How is democracy dying?

[thewirah]

This cartoon could have been worst, like Bezos and Mickey lining up on their knees facing Trump's unzipped pants.

[topherandrew]

You’re so worried about calling Trump a king that most of this segment doesn’t even make sense.
