Limited time offer for new members: Unlock full access to Puck and receive 21% off your first year of membership with promo code 2022BDAY.

Good evening, I'm Dylan Byers.

Good evening, I’m Dylan Byers. Welcome back to In The Room, my biweekly private email and the inner-workings of the media industry. Tonight, from the nation’s capital, we go inside The Washington Post to examine its post-Trump identity crisis, and its struggles to keep pace with the Times.

P.S. If you haven’t yet subscribed to Puck, now is the time. In honor of our one-year anniversary, we’re offering new subscribers a one-time, 21 percent discount upon signing up. If you register now, you’ll receive a special invitation to a private Inner Circle call this Thursday at 4 pm ET, usually reserved for our highest tier of membership, in which I’ll be joined by a cohort of my Puck colleagues to reflect on our journey thus far. I hope you can join us.

The WaPo’s Post-Trump Blues Continue
The WaPo’s Post-Trump Blues Continue
During the Trump years, the fantastic owner-editor Bezos-Baron package stripped the Post of its Politico-purge complacency and vied to make it the true national paper of record. So what happens now?
DYLAN BYERS DYLAN BYERS
One of the enduring charms of Washington D.C., where I lived from 2011 to 2014, and where I found myself this week, is the way its drab streets, dimly-lit bars and earnest Brooks Brothers-attired political-media class immediately envelop you in their own cozy myopia. Here, in the shadow of monuments appealing to a broader view of history and the world, is a town where insularity and incrementalism reign...

The Thompson Manifesto: A Sequel
As a follow-up to his original dissertation on the challenges facing CNN, Mark Thompson recently outlined a vague, pablum-filled vision of the network-cum-news-organization’s future.
