I don't cheer for a newspaper…

Jeff Bezos defends decision to end Washington Post endorsements


…like it's some sort of team and I'm hoping it wins. And I don't care about the politics of the people who work for it, one way or another. I'll make up my own mind, thank you very much.

It seems to me when a newspaper thinks it needs to tell me how to vote it's confessing it hasn't done a very good job of keeping me informed. And not only about the news.

Newspapers have (or should have) clearly labeled opinion pages and I read them. I use them to filter their news. I can pretty well guess how they're going to vote. How I'll vote, I'll decide for myself.

So, maybe not on everything he does but on this, I'll stand with Bezos here.

The important thing is, vote. Where and when you can. Make it a thing.
