The Washington Post is undergoing turmoil after the sudden exit of executive editor Sally Buzbee and a hastily announced restructuring plan aimed at halting a decline in readership. The plan involves dividing the newsroom into three separate divisions with a focus on core news reporting, opinion pieces, and attracting new consumers through innovative uses of social media, video, artificial intelligence, and sales. The changes, led by publisher Will Lewis, have sparked surprise and concern among staff members and media observers, as the Post grapples with financial losses and shifting reader habits amidst a changing media landscape.
