Robert Winnett Declines Washington Post Editor Role

British journalist Robert Winnett has decided not to join the Washington Post as editor and will remain at the Daily Telegraph. This announcement comes from a memo by the U.S. newspaper's publisher, Will Lewis. The Washington Post is experiencing significant changes following Sally Buzbee's recent exit as executive editor.

British journalist Robert Winnett will not join the Washington Post as editor and remain at the London-based the Daily Telegraph, a staff memo from the U.S. newspaper's publisher showed.

"It is with regret that I share with you that Robert Winnett has withdrawn from the position of Editor at The Washington Post," publisher Will Lewis said in the memo. The news comes amid a shake-up at the storied U.S. newspaper after Sally Buzbee exited as executive editor earlier this month. She was set to be replaced by former Wall Street Journal editor-in-chief Matt Murray through the Nov. 5 presidential election, followed by Winnett.
