Although the presidential race between Trump and Harris remains deadlocked, the editorial page editor of The Washington Post told colleagues in a tense meeting on Friday morning that they have decided not to endorse a presidential candidate for the first time in 36 years. Editorial editor David Shipley told colleagues that Will Lewis, the publisher of The Washington Post, will release a statement to readers online early on Friday afternoon. Shipley told colleagues that the editorial department was informed by management yesterday that there would be no endorsement. He added that he "took on" this decision. The reason he mentioned is to create an 'independent space' where newspapers do not tell people who to vote for. It is reported that colleagues are all shocked and generally hold a negative attitude. @seung631
