Opinion Columnist Jen Rubin Leaves Washington Post to Start Contrarian Blog: ‘Billionaire Media Failing to Meet the Moment’

“We’ll have politics but also cooking, humor, film and even pets,” the Conservative anti-Trump voice says of her new blog

Conservative anti-Donald Trump columnist Jen Rubin has left The Washington Post, she announced on Monday, while also taking a parting shot at WaPo owner Jeff Bezos.

Rubin, who joins a growing list of writers who have exited WaPo in the past few months, said she is partnering with former White House ethics czar Norm Eisen to launch her blog, “The Contrarian.” The new publication will be on Substack and cost subscribers $7 per month for full access to its content.

“BIG NEWS. I have left the Post. Corporate and billionaire media are failing to meet the moment,” she wrote on BlueSky.
