Are you about to puke after that SPIN?It is actually not that shocking.
The OP's link was enlightening on why the Washington Post decided not to endorse a presidential candidate.
First and foremost, the WP is owned by Jeff Bezos. Bezos has substantial interests tied to the federal government, so it makes sense that he would not want to get involved with an endorsement, but more on that in a moment.
Second, the WP is moving to the right. Will Lewis the new publisher and CEO, was hired for his conservative credentials.
Now, as far as Bezos is concerned, I don't think anyone should be cheering this new reality regarding the WP. All it evidences is that the day of the independent newspaper is gone and now the mega-rich control the flow of news from those sources, and may endorse only those that will be in their best business interests.
So, the OP can jump with glee over the fact that the WP will not endorse Kamala, but it bodes for a future where independent editorial boards are as extinct as the rotary phone.
You are a fucking clown. It is no surprise that WAPO is not endorsing a “BLACK” FEMALE DEM FOR POTUS.
Bark and clap, trained seal. You are fucking brainwashed.
