"'Los Angeles Times' editor resigns after newspaper withholds presidential endorsement"...

...here is an excerpt from the attached article...
--------------------
LOS ANGELES — The editorials editor of the Los Angeles Times has resigned after the newspaper’s owner blocked the editorial board’s plans to endorse Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris for president, a journalism trade publication reported Wednesday.

Mariel Garza told the Columbia Journalism Review in an interview that she resigned because the Times was remaining silent on the contest in “dangerous times".

“I am resigning because I want to make it clear that I am not OK with us being silent,” Garza said. “In dangerous times, honest people need to stand up. This is how I’m standing up.”

In a post on the social media platform X that did not directly mention the resignation, LA Times owner Patrick Soon-Shiong said the board was asked to do a factual analysis of the policies of Harris and Republican former President Donald Trump during their time at the White House.

Additionally, "The board was asked to provide (its) understanding of the policies and plans enunciated by the candidates during this campaign and its potential effect on the nation in the next four years,” he wrote. “In this way, with this clear and non-partisan information side-by-side, our readers could decide who would be worthy of being president for the next four years.”


Soon-Shiong, who bought the paper in 2018, said the board “chose to remain silent and I accepted their decision.”

Garza told the Columbia Journalism Review that the board had intended to endorse Harris and she had drafted the outline of a proposed editorial.

------------------

The big surprise is that the owner of the L.A. Times...and close friend of Donald Trump...showed us the future of journalism, should Donald Trump win this election...only Trump approved propaganda...something Eli knows all too well...will be allowed...and supposed "Enemies Within" will be silenced.

This doesn't have to be...all that's needed to defeat this assault on our freedom are votes for Kamala Harris...thus allowing a continuation of the dream our Founding Fathers fought for.
