The Washington Post's Craven Capitulation to the Billionaire Class
Briefly

The Washington Post's refusal to endorse a presidential candidate signals a retreat from its journalistic responsibility, prioritizing corporate interests over democratic principles.
In emphasizing an 'independent space' for voters, editorial-page editor David Shipley ignores the reality of pervasive political messaging, compromising the paper's integrity in the process.
Shipley's intentions are clouded by corporate loyalty, suggesting that the Post has abandoned its role as a guardian of democracy for financial comfort.
The decision reflects a troubling trend in journalism where the pursuit of objectivity leads to the abdication of moral responsibility during critical political moments.
