Have a problem with our endorsements? That’s not news! Here’s some of what we’ve heard.
An Associated Press story on Wednesday, Oct. 26, dove into a topic I raised last week, with this lede:"Newspaper endorsements are fading away as prizes to be nabbed by political campaigns, the practice a victim of both the news industry's troubles and the era's bitter politics." The story assumes a state and rate of decline that's notborne out by the reporting: It notes declines in top-of-ticket endorsements for president, governor, or U.S.
The AP, being exactly the kind of mainstream press voice I was slagging on last week, spins this as:"The days when a prominent endorsement would quickly make its way into a campaign ad, or voters would clip out an editorial to take into the voting booth, seem destined for history." The ad pages of this very issue of theboth did, and what McClatchy will now do, is talk to candidates in key races before making our endorsements.
