If WaPo decided shortly after the last election they will no longer endorse candidates

it would make sense. I wouldn't agree with it as it is important to get strong views from a factual news source.
However, to do it this close to the election is an endorsement especially when it's known
a ranking official at WaPo had a meeting with djt the hours before the decision was made. And the opinion had already been
written and was on its way to the presses.

WaPo has been endorsing candidates since Watergate and their reasoning then was to tell the truth of what was happening in
Washington politics.

The fact that they have been endorsing D candidates is reasoned that the better and more seasoned choice would be the
democrat and not the republican. So far, history has proved them correct.

You have no issue with FOX TV endorsing a candidate? How about Sinclair media group?

WaPo with its decision has eroded one of the great and most respected news outlets on the planet with this action.
The one thing basos got right is that WaPo isn't going to alter many, if any votes -


Jack, he is a banker
and Jane, she is a clerk
