Is this the death of newspaper presidential endorsements?

Should the media tell you who to vote for? In the last week, two major U.S. newspapers have announced they won’t endorse a candidate for the U.S. presidential election. It’s a huge departure from the way legacy media has traditionally approached elections, and has called into question the billionaire ownership of the LA Times and the Washington Post. In today's podcast, we discuss what the decision could mean for the media and editorial independence moving forward.

Hosts: Zara Seidler and Sam Koslowski
Producer: Orla Maher
