Somewhere out there, ex-WaPo reporter Taylor Lorenz is surrounded by cats, crying into her hand-sewn Taylor Swift body pillow.
Jen Rubin, she's down for the count.
The Bezos owned WaPo is staying out of the presidential race for the first time since Bush ran in '88.
What a complete and total embarrassment for the Harris campaign. First the LA Times and now WaPo, the two biggest left-wing papers in America??
Even the Washington Compost thinks, "Ehh, I don't know if we can really support Kamala."
'We are returning to our roots of not endorsing presidential candidates,' Will Lewis wrote in an opinion piece published on the paper's website. He referenced the paper's policy in the decades prior to 1976, when, following the Watergate scandal that the Post broke, it endorsed Democratic nominee Jimmy Carter. The last time the Post did not endorse a presidential candidate in the general election was 1988, according to a search of its archives.
Colleagues learned the news from the editorial page editor, David Shipley, at a tense meeting shortly before Lewis' announcement. The meeting was characterized by someone with direct knowledge of discussions on condition of anonymity to speak about internal matters.
Mr. Potato has the scoop:
These people live in a pretend world where its them versus Orange Hitler. This must have shaken them to the core!
Maybe Bezos is smarter than we give him credit for.
Here, the author is referencing the fact that the LA Times also refused to endorse the home state candidate Harris.
Absolutely golden.
The writing is on the wall, people!
