'Bizarre thing...': Shashi Tharoor reacts to son Ishan being sacked by Washington Post Reacting on X, Tharoor wrote: “The bizarre thing about this so-called ‘business decision’ by The Washington Post is that @ishaantharoor’s column flourished on the Internet,” adding that Ishaan Tharoor had “500,000 (half a million plus!) individual subscribers” for his WorldView newsletter. He said he had met foreign ministers, diplomats and scholars around the world who read the newsletter daily, and argued that the newspaper could have tried monetising that reach instead of abolishing it. #Shashi_Tharoor #Washington_Post #Ishaan_Tharoor #Post_Reacting #Bizarre_thing #Tharoor_wrote #son_Ishan #Tharoor_reacts #individual_subscribers #business_decision’
