These institutions' value aren't in βbeing profitable', it's in having the namesake to distribute establishment disinformation/propaganda. Same goes for cnn, npr, etc etc

Can you name anyone from The Deep State?
What exactly is indicative of their membership?
What are their goals?
How is it that they're simultaneously both wicked smart and also stupid enough to have their dastardly plans foiled by internet "researchers"?

Hubris and their outnumbered 50 million too 1. The same reason central planning doesn't work. The accumulated knowledge of millions and millions can't be predicted or is not smarter than one man.
The deep state has arms. Bannon is one part of that arm and the Masonics. Like manarino they are against the federal reserve private banking cartel. The agents of the families that met on jekyl island too create the fed. Where the carnegies, rotchilds, vanderbilts, Rockefeller and J.P. Morgan. These families go back 100s of years. And are above governments. These are only some of them. The ones that we know of have had immeasurable wealth since napoleon. And have spread through out the world over generations. Some of these are the owner of the pizza gate establishment who is a secret rothchild. Another is Anderson cooper a Vanderbilt who was so brutally tortured and r*ped as a child that his brother committed suicide at 23. Cooper is in a famous painting as a child inside podestas living room.

What is funny about this to me, is that you're assuming I've never read this kind of lunacy before.
Like your little Truthy presentation would blow my mind. A total revelation!

That is just visitors. Also they stopped releasing this info (hence 2022 numbers), otherwise I would have used a more up-to-date example.

I have to imagine they knew they'd fall off after an election year.

Complete opposite actually. The article I linked is about how WaPo had to make cuts after rapid expansion.

How the frick do they even have hundreds of employees? They have about two correspondents per continent. They need three shifts of people running the booth, maybe 20 anchors, and a few editors. How the heck do they even have 200 full time staff?
It would be one thing if it was an actual 24 hour news channel but it's not. It's just a panel discussion of whatever Trump did that day. Yesterday they completely ignored the coup in Ecuador because they're not equipped to deal with anything unexpected.
It's really just a bloated youtube channel at this point.

Marketing is my least favorite part of the job but I feel like there had to be enough of my level of r-slur in the company to call out the obvious. I guess not?

I'm willing to bet Bezos is fine with this, and that he wants WaPo to push a message, not bring in money.

But he still wants us to pay a subscription. Imagine paying to hear Amazon guy's political advertising.

I agree, though I'm presuming he'd rather it make a profit. But his primary concern is the prestige and power/propaganda of owning legacy media.
Problem being losing credibility hurts the brand, even though it's status as an institution keeps it artificially high. Most people don't think legacy media is unsalvagable, just that it's currently shit, and moving deeper into that shit.
Firing people is a good start, but until they bite the bullet and get rid of people like , they'll still have one foot in the gutter.

Legit, legacy media needs to get Trump elected again so that they can have things to write about. Bezo is secretly Trump's biggest backer.

No, that account's been reported several times. It is part of a group that co-ordinates to target specific moderators and users for harassment, and they rotate through sockpuppet accounts and throwaways in order to maintain activity under the admins' actionable threshold per time period.
They then sell that information about how to circumvent moderation, safety, and security to third parties in order to enable racially motivated violent extremism, ideologically motivated violent extremism, inauthentic engagement, etcetera.
The fact that they're in this thread is a way for them to mock /u/WorstNerd and the reddit security, safety, and anti-evil teams.
Reddit executives have been made aware of the existence of this group repeatedly for the past two years.
If you want to help motivate admins to take them seriously, report the comments instead of replying to them.
