The Washington Post never supported any candidates for the US presidency. This has become better in just over 40 years.
RBC-Ukraine reports about this via a post on the newspaper’s website.
The news means that WP leader Jeff Bezos has decided to accept the decision.
The decision, which was announced 11 days before the elections, sparked intense condemnation on the part of a wide range of prepayers, political figures and PMI commentators.
Community reaction to the decision
Robert Kagan, a longtime Post observer and editor-in-chief, supported the huge debate by filing a protest, and a group of 11 Washington Post observers signed an article condemning it decision.
Disabled readers and emails have filled the electronic screenshots of numerous spivorbitniks with scammers.
“We are aware that this will be dealt with in a variety of ways, including the mercenary support of one candidate, or the condemnation of another, or the removal of primacy. This is inevitable,” wrote CEO William Lewis.
Lewis also described the decision as “a pledge to encourage readers to accept the decision.”
For a number of years after the scandal, a group of Washington Post observers, including Pulitzer Prize winner Eugene Robinson and the formidable champion of editorial page editor Ruth Marcus, called the decision a “greedy mercy” yu”
“At this point, any decision can be adopted to clearly confirm one’s commitment to democratic values, the rule of law and international alliances, as well as the threat that Donald Trump poses for them (candidate for the US presidency of the Republican Party, – ed.) – precisely no moments like The Post found that Trump’s opponents were supported in 2016 and 2020,” he said.
WP was not the first to recruit a candidate
The Post's decision marks another episode as a major media organization looks to provide support in the race between the Republican Party candidate, former President Donald Trump, and his opponent in the Democratic Party parties, Vice President Kamala Harris.
Earlier this year, Patrick Soon-Shiong, the Los Angeles Times billionaire, blocked a planned promotion of Harris, prompting the resignation of the newspaper's editorial editor.
WP's earlier decision was to support Harris
According to the data, Harris's praise was prepared by the Post's intelligence officers, but has not yet been published, according to two people who were informed about the sequence of events and who spoke in anonymity .
Due to anonymous sources, the decision not to publish the candidate's endorsement was accepted by The Post's leader, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.
“This decision of the Washington Post is not supported, and I would send you the same statement again,” the communications director said to Katie Bird.
