USA, the Washington Post abstains: neither with Trump nor with Harris

It was reportedly owner Jeff Bezos who blocked an endorsement in favor of Harris that had already been prepared by journalists and employees

ROME – Neither with Kamala Harris nor with Donald Trump: the Washington Post has announced that for the November 5 elections it will not support either of the two presidential aspirants, thus breaking with a fifty-year tradition of support for the Democrats.
The choice was communicated by the CEO of the company that publishes the newspaper, William Lewis. The commitment, according to the manager, would be to “return to the roots”not supporting any candidate, neither in the next elections nor in the others to come.
Last week, a similar position had been communicated by another nationally referenced newspaper, the Los Angeles Times.

According to sources cited by the Washington Post, the newspaper’s decision would be due to an intervention in this sense by its owner, Jeff Bezos. It was he, we read on the newspaper’s website, who blocked an endorsement in favor of Harris already prepared by journalists and employees.
