While 2 Big Newspapers Quash Kamala Harris Endorsements, Another Kisses Trump’s…Let’s Say Ring

The role of the media during the 2024 presidential election has not exactly earned the honor that the fourth estate deems itself worthy of. It spent much of this campaign season demeaning President Biden prior to his passing the torch to his Vice-President, Kamala Harris. Following Harris’ entry into the race, many in the mainstream press held her to ridiculously higher standards than they did Donald Trump.

Donald Trump, Newspapers, Baby, Hate

As CNN’s Van Jones said, “He gets to be lawless, she has to be flawless.” There was little distinction made between Harris, a candidate who has stellar credentials (Attorney General of the largest state in the union, United States Senator, and Vice-President), and Trump, whose resume reeks of personal and professional depravity (a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, financial fraudster, pathological liar, and mentally infirm). What’s more, Trump despises the media and openly threatens its existence.

This week a couple of prominent newspapers lathered themselves in disgrace by announcing that they would succumb to the MAGA mob and the bullying tactics of Donald Trump by refraining from making any endorsements in the presidential race. As reported by The Guardian’s Margaret Sullivan

“The Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post have decided to sit this one out. Both major news organizations, each owned by a billionaire, announced this week that their editorial boards would not make a presidential endorsement, despite their decades-long traditions of doing so. There’s no other way to see this other than as an appalling display of cowardice and a dereliction of their public duty.”

This wasn’t a neutral decision by experienced journalists. It was the mandate from the owners after editors had already decided to endorse Harris. As a result, senior editorial staffers at both papers resigned in protest of what former WaPo editor Marty Baron called “Disturbing spinelessness.” Even worse, it’s an implied message of support for Trump who, were he to win, could bring his wrath down on the billionaire owners who both have personal fortunes dependent on government business.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the political spectrum, Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post published its endorsement of Trump, calling him the clear choice for a better future.” Which is peculiar considering that in 2022, the NYPost published a scathing rebuke of Trump with an emphasis on his abhorrent mishandling of the January 6th insurrection that he incited. That article said in part that…

  • “Trump didn’t lift a finger to stop the violence.”
  • “To his eternal shame, as appalled aides implored him to publicly call on his followers to go home, he instead further fanned the flames.”
  • “His only focus was to find any means — damn the consequences — to block the peaceful transfer of power.”
  • “Trump has proven himself unworthy to be this country’s chief executive again.”

So only two years after declaring that Trump is “unworthy” to reoccupy the White House, the NYPost is now endorsing him as “the clear choice”? That’s quite a reversal. And that’s why Trump was so happy to post on his failing Twitter ripoff, “I LOVE THE NEW YORK POST. GREAT ELECTION COVERAGE. THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL ENDORSEMENT!!!” Which is also peculiar considering that Trump has previously posted harsh condemnations of the NYPost…

  • Saying that “Since the New York Post went ‘bad’ on TRUMP, there [sic] numbers have fallen, tremendously. Great, people are tired of hearing Fake News. It used to be sooo good, but not anymore!”
  • And asking “Has anybody noticed how badly the New York Post is doing since going anti-Trump? A beautiful thing to see!”
  • And asserting that “Andy McCarthy, legal pundit of the dying New York Post, who will do anything Rupert Murdoch…tell him to do.”

This is just more proof that Trump is a cognitive mess who can’t recall what his prior lies were, or who his current enemies are. He just unloads whatever crawls into his corroding cranial cavity, knowing that his cult disciples will believe anything he says, even he’s contradicting what he said the day (or the minute) before.

It’s that psychosis that the press is repeatedly failing to report to the American people who need to have this information before they vote. So shame on the L.A. Times and the Washington Post. Their decision to spike the Harris endorsements is not just bad journalism, it’s dangerously unpatriotic.
