Kamala has reached angry, shrill Hillary status… #JOY

The owner of the Los Angeles Times has forbidden the paper’s editorial board from backing Kamala Harris in this year’s US presidential election, bucking two decades of Democratic endorsements, Semafor has reported.

The editorial board was preparing to endorse Harris for the presidency, until Executive Editor Terry Tang intervened earlier this month and ordered no endorsement be published, Semafor reported on Tuesday, citing two anonymous sources.

According to the sources, the order came directly from the paper’s owner, Patrick Soon-Shiong.

A South African-born medical doctor and billionaire entrepreneur, Soon-Shiong bought the ailing LA Times in 2018. While he managed to reverse decades of losses and headcount reductions, the newspaper’s advertising revenue plummeted during the Covid-19 pandemic, and more than 100 employees were sacked earlier this year.

Soon-Shiong’s decision to block the endorsement of Harris will be seen as a major blow to the vice president, as the LA Times is the most prominent newspaper in her home state of California.

Ohhhhhhh, that one is nasty. Hahahahaha

The Washington Post will not be endorsing Kamala Harris. For the first time in forty years, the paper will not endorse anyone.

Yeah coke users are pretty obvious. That's a coke user. Not even a question.
