Barry Diller criticized The Washington Post's non-endorsement for 2024, calling it a "blunder."

Barry Diller, chairman of Expedia and IAC, criticized The Washington Post's decision, made by owner Jeff Bezos, not to endorse a candidate for the 2024 presidential race, calling it a "blunder." This decision sparked backlash from staff, resulted in 250,000 digital subscription cancellations, and led to the resignation of three editorial board members. Bezos defended the choice as a way to rebuild public trust in media, though Diller suggested it should have occurred earlier.
