The decision to forgo an endorsement marks a significant shift in The Washington Post's editorial tradition, with editor David Shipley emphasizing a need for 'independent space.'
Shipley acknowledged the decision surprised many colleagues, who reportedly reacted with shock and negativity over the abandonment of long-standing endorsement practices.
The decision follows the Post's critical coverage of Donald Trump, underscoring the editorial board's belief that his actions have rendered him unfit for office.
Similar moves by other news organizations, like the LA Times, have led to staff resignations, raising concerns about the editorial direction in journalism.
