What Papers in Your State Will Endorse Bush?

[otohara]

In Colorado -

Rocky Mt. News
Colorado Springs Gazzette

[AlinPA]

1. Tribune-Review (Pittsburgh/Greensburg). This is Scaife's paper.

[HootieMcBoob]

22. If The Tribune-Review doesn't endorse Bush

we'll know for sure it's the end of the world. That would be like The NY Post not endorsing him.

[Ravenseye]

49. Nah

It'd be like Laura Bush not endorsing him.

[Pegleg Thd]

2. In oklahoma

the ass-wipe that passes for newspapers here will all bow down to the 'texas turd'.!!!:nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:

[juslikagrzly]

50. Yup,

Tulsa World endorsed the rat bastard this morning. Ugh!

[DaveinMD]

3. Washington Times

and some dinky little local papers. The Post will endorse Kerry.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

4. Boston Herald: A Rupert Murdoch Shit Rag

[skylarmae]

5. All - I live in Utah -State with a 40 point cushion for Georgie Porgie

Salt Lake Tribune
Deseret Morning News

Utah, the most Repuke-lickin state in the Union.
From me to all of you, you really should try talking sense to most
of the people around here. Vast majorities of them don't even believe that dinosaurs ever walked on the planet. Yup, they never
existed. The good Lord dragged them dead dino bones over here so as to be able to plant them over in the middle east so that they could turn to oil one day and thus become the catalyst of Armageddon

[skylarmae]

7. I swear, this is not a joke! Think Orrin Hatch and Bob Bennett

[HootieMcBoob]

23. I was in a play in Salt Lake City one time

It's a beautiful place - absolutely beautiful. We visited Zion and Brice national parks too. Amazing. The people were very friendly but they all looked like either local television news anchors or televangelists. Very strange. One thing my girlfriend and I did agree on. Utah has, without question, the cleanest restrooms that you'll ever find anywhere in the country and possibly the world. Even the bathrooms at gas stations are spotless. There's something to be said for that :)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. St. Paul Pioneer Press, maybe.

The Minneapolis Star-Tribune will go for Kerry.

[movonne]

8. Oregonian, Seattle Post Intelligencer....

[TrueAmerican]

9. I thought the Oregonain endorsed Kerry today?

Am I wrong?

[TrueAmerican]

14. Here's the DU link OREGONIAN ENDORSES KERRY!

[0rganism]

20. If so, it's not on their website

http://www.oregonlive.com/editorials/oregonian/

They did endorsed the republican challenger in district 1 against democratic incumbent Wu, who screwed himself royally by caving on the prescription drug benefit.

[LiberalFighter]

24. Seattle Times endorsed Kerry

27 August 2004

[Zynx]

48. Sweet.

[bornskeptic]

Voters' choice is clear: John Kerry for president

SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER EDITORIAL BOARD

John Kerry should be the next president of the United States. This endorsement is based not only on President Bush's failings -- which are manifest -- but also on the conclusion that Kerry can succeed where Bush has failed.

(snip)

George W. Bush has failed America on the economy, civil liberties, the environment, nuclear proliferation and, most unforgivable, on national security by leading us into a demonstrably unnecessary war in Iraq that has distracted our attention from and diminished our capability to fight a comprehensive global war on terror.
Kerry is intellectually and ideologically equipped to succeed where Bush has failed. The obvious prospects for that success lie in his military, congressional and international experience, his superior intellectual curiosity and willingness to consider dissenting opinions, his commitment to protecting the civil liberties of all Americans and his potential to surround himself with a broad coalition of competent Cabinet members, staff and advisers.

10. ??? THAT should be interesting! Repub press v John Edwards charm.

[Bjornsdotter]

11. In Illinois...Chicago

....it will be the Chicago Sun-times.


Cheers,
Kim :toast:

[tedoll78]

13. Dallas Morning News.

Blech.

[Maestro]

26. Yep! It tries to give the impression that it is impartial but

it is one of the most freeperish papers I have ever read. I cancelled my subscription several years ago and when I asked I told them it was way too conservative!

[argyl]

33. The day after the DMN concluded that the SCOTUS was justified

in awarding the presidency to Smirk I cancelled my subscription.They called me to inquire as to why I would be cancelling and by the time I was done I had the solicitor agreeing with me.

[n2mark]

15. In Arizona

So far the Tucson paper... I'm sure no papers in Phoenix will, so pug and pug owned.

[LiberalFighter]

25. Arizona Daily Star endorsed Kerry

3 October 2004

[alteredstate]

16. In SC, the Post and Courier

I can't bear to look at the editorial page anymore --- every day a new neo-con op-ed.

[chemteacher]

Didn't the RMN endorse Salazar today, though?

I thought that was a pretty good sign...they made a big deal about his experience.

[hlthe2b]

19. yes.... that's why I am not so sure the RMN will go for Bush*

Has anyone heard something OFFICIAL?

[otohara]

42. Salazar Endorsement mentioned

how much they liked * tax program for the rich. don't hold your breath for the RMN to endorse kerry, they will not.

[ButterflyBlood]

17. The Star Tribune will definately endorse Kerry

not even a question. The St. Paul Pioneer Press is it's counter and will most likely be endorsing *. The paper for my city is the Mankato Free Press and it tends to lean liberal, and I'm sure it'll endorse Kerry. I don't know how any other papers lean.

[sweetladybug]

18. In Nashville, the Tennessean will endorse Kerry.

[HootieMcBoob]

21. In NYC I think it'll be The Post, The Sun and the WSJ

The Post of course is Rupert's Rag and The Sun is the relatively new right wing very pro-Israel conservative rag.

The Wall Street Journal will probably go Bush since its editorial page is a major cog in the vast right wing echo chamber conspiracy machine thingy but the chimp has been such a miserable failure that even they might surprise...

For Kerry in NYC:

The New York Times
The Daily News
Newsday
The Amsterdam News
The Observer
The Village Voice
New York Press

And probably every other one that I can't think of.

[Eric J in MN]

27. maybe the St. Paul Pioneer Press. They endorsed Bush in 2000 (nt)

nt

[bling bling]

28. In Missouri, the St. Louis Post Dispatch will endorse Kerry

I'm sure of it. They are often accused of being a "liberal" newspaper by the fundies but they always do their research and produce very level-headed and well thought out endorsements, imo.

Not sure about the Kansas City Star.

[MissouriTeacher]

44. The Star endorsed Gore in 2000.

I'd be shocked frankly if they endorsed Bush. The Star isn't much for real journalism, but their editorial board is pretty liberal.

[LiberalFighter]

29. Detroit, Tucson Dailies Endorse Kerry; Lowell and Pueblo for Bush

Detroit, Tucson Dailies Endorse Kerry; Lowell and Pueblo for Bush

NEW YORK The Democratic candidate for president appears to have an early lead in major daily newspaper endorsements. In the past two days, Senator John Kerry has picked up the backing of the Detroit Free Press and Tucson's Arizona Daily Star.

Other metro papers backing Kerry so far include The Seattle Times and The Philadelphia Daily News. The Las Vegas (Nev.) Review-Journal and the Amarillo, Texas, daily have picked Bush, as E&P noted previously. The Lowell (Ma.) Sun and Pueblo (Colo.) Chieftain both went for Bush in the past week. Few papers have endorsed either candidate so far.

The Detroit Free Press endorsed Kerry on Monday, lamenting that "the nation is more divided in more ways than it has been since the turbulent 1960s. The president has failed, or refused, to pursue consensus on America's problems and instigated solutions that have produced results ranging from mixed to disastrous.

[argyl]

30. Except for the Lone Star Iconoclast probably all of them.

[LiberalFighter]

31. Detroit Free Press: John Kerry would offer more effective leadership

ENDORSEMENT: On Iraq, national security, the economy and more, John Kerry would offer more effective leadership

Four years ago, George W. Bush promised America he was "a uniter, not a divider." Today, the nation is more divided in more ways than it has been since the turbulent 1960s. The president has failed, or refused, to pursue consensus on America's problems and instigated solutions that have produced results ranging from mixed to disastrous.

As president, Bush has plunged America into a costly war under false premises, alienated nations with whom America should be mapping a global strategy against terrorism, managed the most secretive administration in modern times, run up huge budget deficits, deceived Congress on the cost of a Medicare drug plan, and effectively denied women around the world access to information about reproductive health.

Since courageously uniting and rallying the nation following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Bush has become a polarizing figure at home and abroad. He, at least, is sufficiently resolute in his course and convictions that he doesn't appeared troubled by that. But he ought to be. Nobody is right about everything all the time.

The American people will always be grateful to George W. Bush for his leadership after 9/11. But it is not the best leadership for America at this point in history.

[NewJeffCT]

32. Connecticut - all for Bush, except maybe 1

I think almost all the major newspapers in CT are controlled by the Tribune Co (Conrad Black...)

The Hartford Courant traditionally endorses Republicans (Clinton in '96 was their first since FDR)

New Haven Register, Waterbury Republican, Manchester Jouranl Inquirer, Connecticut Post, Stamford Advocate, Danbury News-Times are all controlled by some RWers.

I think the New London Day is still independent, so Kerry has a shot there.

[roseBudd]

34. Kerry endorsing newspaper have a 4-1 higher circulation

see Editor & Publisher

[otohara]

43. Seriously ??

Here's the E&P site link, could you find that story please. I couldn't find it.

[roseBudd]

46. Editor and publisher is keeping a daily tally of endorsements

E&P is America's Oldest Journal Covering the Newspaper Industry

[demosincebirth]

35. SF Chronicle, Oakland Tribune, San Jose Mercury News

[ronnykmarshall]

39. I waiting on the L.A. Times

For the first time in years they are going to endorse a candidate. They have not done so in the past.

[autorank]

40. Chronicle and Mercury for Bush, No Way

[autorank]

41. Slime Ball Washington Post will go Bush. Already have!

They, along with the NYT, have endorsed Bush on a de facto basis through promoting the self-imposed truce on presidential criticism and hawking the pathetic, delusional, mendacious build up of the war. These are crimes against responsible journalism that the Washington Post will bear forever. Even if they endorse Kerry it will be tongue-in-cheek. Everybody with any type of intelligence in the DC area knows that the Post is a whore operation. My hope is that a Kerry victory will energize the Democrats and, as a result, we will have an alternative in this area. If we do, The Post is toast!

[demosincebirth]

45. Sorry, my mistake. They will endorse Kerry.

[autorank]

54. Thanks! Them for * is like Idaho and Montana for Kerry. n/t

[Quetzal]

36. I don't think any major paper in Hawaii will endorse Bush

[demzilla]

37. The Arizona Republic, er RepublicAN

Largest paper in the state, affectionately known as the Repugnant, and was originally called The Arizona Republican until around the 1920s or 30s or so.

They've actually managed to endorse Dems for state office in recent years, but have never deviated from the forces of darkness when it comes to the national ticket.

[Chili]

38. Cleveland Plain Dealer

I'll be shocked if they don't endorse Bush.

[roseBudd]

47. Any Gannett papers endorsed yet?

Cincinnati Enquirer has not endorsed anyone yet.

[BillZBubb]

52. The Houston Chronicle

Even though they regularly rip his failed policies in their editorials. But, they know which way the wind blows down here. They'll give Bush* a less than ringing endorsement based on Kerry being "indecisive" or some bullshit like that.

[LizW]

55. In Alabama, the Birmingham News

will undoubtedly endorse Bush, if it hasn't already.
