Newspapers endorsing candidates Friday, Oct 24, 2008 1:25 pm

I keep hearing about newspapers endorsing presidential candidates (NY Times for Obama, Washington Post and LA Times for Obama [ok, like everybody for Obama]), and I can't help but think it's completely backwards.  If I want a political opinion, I'll read some political opinions.  If I want news, I expect to find it in a newspaper.  And sure, we all know most major news outlets tend to show some political bias.  But not all of them explicitly state it.  I suppose I should be thankful that these newspapers are making their opinions open and honest, but at the same time, I'd rather have unbiased people reporting my news.  Thankfully, USA Today is still neutral.
