An arbitrator has ordered The Washington Post to reinstate Karen Attiah, a Black opinion writer who was fired following social media posts about violent white men after the killing of Charlie Kirk last year. The Thursday ruling concluded that the newspaper lacked sufficient cause for the termination.

At the time of her firing, Attiah served as the final Black full-time member of the Post's opinion desk. The arbitration decision mandates her return to the publication.
