D&#8217;Onofrio has been the Post&#8217;s chief financial officer since June 2025. He was also previously CEO of the social media platform Tumblr. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lewis had been in the role of Post publisher since November 2023. Prior to coming to the Post, he was the publisher of the Wall Street Journal from 2014 to 2020. <\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Post executive editor Matt Murray announced the layoffs on a Zoom call. Lewis received criticism from employees after he was allegedly absent from that Zoom call, according to multiple media reports. <\/p>\n<p>As part of its layoffs, the Post scaled back its foreign news coverage and shut down some sections of the paper, including sports. <\/p>\n<p>In a letter to the newsroom shared with CBS News, Murray wrote that the restructuring plans are intended to &#8220;place The Washington Post on a stronger footing&#8221; and better position the paper in a &#8220;rapidly changing era of new technologies and evolving user habits.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A Post spokesperson confirmed to CBS News that the cuts impacted about one-third of the newsroom. <\/p>\n<p>Speaking to CBS News earlier this week, Martin Baron, executive editor of The Washington Post from 2013 to 2021, was critical of the Post&#8217;s leadership for some of its editorial decisions, including <span class=\"link\"><a

presidential candidate in the days before the 2024 national election, which he said hurt the paper&#8217;s reputation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He also directed blame at Bezos for prioritizing his other businesses \u2014 Amazon and Blue Origin \u2014 over the Post.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<p class=\"content__meta--contributors\">\n<p>                                  <a
