Will Lewis, the stubbled bumbler brought in by Jeff Bezos to lay waste to the Washington Post, is gone. He was, however, spotted far from the crime scene just one day after the worst single day in his newspaper’s century-and-a-half history, partying out west during Super Bowl week. Nicki Jhabvala, a sportswriter who left the Washington Post for The Athletic this past summer, caught the absentee boss looking ruddy and rotten while walking a red carpet at an NFL shindig. But the Financial Times reported that Bezos found Lewis’s post-firings socializing at the Super Bowl “callous.” And now he’s gone. According to the Washington Post's AI-powered search engine, the paper has yet to report on Lewis’s resignation.
