NY Times endorses Kerry. I'm not sure if this is a big deal or not, but the New York Times has endorsed Kerry in a a very well-written editorial (login required). It certainly caught my eye.
bugos6/bugos worked for me.
"He is blessedly willing to re-evaluate decisions when conditions change."
And in strong contrast, Bush is incapable of admitting any doubt about decisions made over serious, complex issues.
Can't find the reference at the moment, but I read earlier today that every major paper has endorsed the same party candidate this year as they did in 2000, which makes it pretty much a non-story in my book. We'd have more of a story if someone who backed Bush last time didn't this time, or backed the Democrats last time that backed Bush this time. (Assuming what I read earlier was correct in the first place.)
mecurious, try this list.
If by well-written you mean lecturing to their readers, I agree. I concur with Atrios that Gail Collins is a poor institutional voice for the Times.
(Note: I don't quibble at all with the content; just the style.)
Thanks for the link, yed. They seem to have gotten that list from Editor & Publisher (October 11th info) which appears to be a less biased source, as well.
October 16th and 17th articles on the same subject. This source looks like a keeper if you are interested in watching the newspaper endorcement issue.
