2024-10-29 at 7:28 AM UTC in Washington Post not endorsing presidential candidate for first time in decadesand to be honest, Bezos' statement on the matter is very reasonable.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/10/28/jeff-bezos-washington-post-trust/In the annual public surveys about trust and reputation, journalists and the media have regularly fallen near the very bottom, often just above Congress. But in this year’s Gallup poll, we have managed to fall below Congress. Our profession is now the least trusted of all. Something we are doing is clearly not working.
Let me give an analogy. Voting machines must meet two requirements. They must count the vote accurately, and people must believe they count the vote accurately. The second requirement is distinct from and just as important as the first.
Likewise with newspapers. We must be accurate, and we must be believed to be accurate. It’s a bitter pill to swallow, but we are failing on the second requirement. Most people believe the media is biased. Anyone who doesn’t see this is paying scant attention to reality, and those who fight reality lose. Reality is an undefeated champion. It would be easy to blame others for our long and continuing fall in credibility (and, therefore, decline in impact), but a victim mentality will not help. Complaining is not a strategy. We must work harder to control what we can control to increase our credibility.
basically trust in 'mainstream' media is low enough as it is without it appearing as a mouthpiece for either candidate, so it's more important for them to work towards a ratio of more reporting and less editorialising. -

But the implication is that they will always fuck you. You just can't complain if they don't, because you're not technically paying for sex.
I passed a bunch of those hostess bars and these whores kept grabbing me trying to get me to come in but I knew those are a scam.
oh right, I don't really know much about it. I just remember hearing that the yakuza run most of the 'actual' brothels and won't let foreigners in without some huge markup -
