I was getting the WP through Amazon for $42/year. Just got an email from the Post saying my price was going to $170/year starting in early December. What??? I contacted Amazon - they couldn't even find my history or find an offer on Amazon. I tried to use online chat at WP - they told me they'd email me - that they were offline. ?? Anyone have a similar experience?
I'm based in the UK but I've been subscribed to the digital Washington Post since 2017, as I find US politics and government fascinating. I enjoy reading their news, opinions, and advice columns.
Since Bezos' overreach and crackdown on journalistic independence at the end of last year I've been meaning to cancel (it doesn't renew until August), but am stuck for two reasons:
I have got a $19/year rate, which is very good value, and I don't want to regret losing this.
I'm not sure what comparable (and more ethically acceptable) outlet I should subscribe to instead.
Can anyone offer any thoughts or advice on the above, please?
