Endorsement"...from the attached article...

Two more members of the Los Angeles Times editorial board resigned Thursday after the newspaper’s owner blocked an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris, a contentious decision that has engulfed the publication in turmoil.

Robert Greene, a Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial writer, resigned from his position over billionaire Times owner Patrick Soon-Shiong’s decision to veto the planned endorsement, he confirmed to CNN. In 2021, Greene won journalism’s most prestigious award for his editorials “on policing, bail reform, prisons and mental health that clearly and holistically examined the Los Angeles criminal justice system.”

In a resignation letter, Greene wrote that he was “deeply disappointed” in the decision to not endorse Harris.

“I recognize that it is the owner’s decision to make,” he wrote. “But it hurt particularly because one of the candidates, Donald Trump, has demonstrated such hostility to principles that are central to journalism-respect for the truth and reverence for democracy.”

Karin Klein, another member of the editorial board, also resigned Thursday in protest. Klein announced her decision in a Facebook post, writing: “I respect the owner’s right to interfere with editorials; that is one place where he ethically can do so.”

What steams me is that a decision against an editorial at this point is actually a decision to do an editorial - a wordless one, a make-believe-invisible one that unfairly implies that she has grievous faults that somehow put her on a level with Donald Trump." she added.
