Longtime Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson is leaving the newspaper, he announced this week.
Robinson informed his Post colleagues of his decision on Thursday, he wrote on the social platform X.
"I'm retiring from my longtime journalistic home but not from journalism, and I'll keep you posted as I decide what my next chapter will be," he said.
Robinson has been writing for the Post's opinion section since 2005 and in recent years has been a regular on MSNBC and other cable news shows.
He won a Pulitzer Prize in 2009 for his columns on the 2008 presidential race.
He is the latest in a slew of Post opinion writers to leave the news organization as it goes through major changes to its editorial strategy and business under billionaire owner Jeff Bezos.
Bezos sparked internal consternation and raised eyebrows earlier this year with an order to the Post Opinions department to focus on "free markets and personal freedoms."
President Trump has praised Bezos' efforts at the Post, saying the billionaire media and tech mogul is trying to "do a good job," and be more fair to him.
