The Washington Post’s losses soared past $100 million in 2025 as the paper struggled to keep up with a changing news landscape — prompting colossal layoffs earlier this month, according to a Thursday report.
After bleeding $77 million in 2023 and about $100 million in 2024, losses continued to pile up at the Jeff Bezos-owned broadsheet last year — even with a still-well-staffed newsroom, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources familiar with the matter.

Asked for comment Thursday, a Washington Post spokesperson pointed to a previous statement on the layoffs, saying they “are designed to strengthen our footing and sharpen our focus on delivering the distinctive journalism that sets The Post apart and, most importantly, engages our customers.”
The paper declined to comment on its revenue figures.
