A couple of newspapers are deciding not to endorse a presidential candidate this year which has completely broken the minds of their audience, who they have been coddling and shaping the opinions of with their poorly sourced drivel for years, screwing their audience to a drooling r-slur, left-leaning semi-human. Papers have found out that endorsing a candidate is literally too on the nose and seeing as how no one trusts them are attempting to back peddle as their trust levels fall into despair. Now they are losing the audience they have cultivated for years because, like toddlers, if you don't give them everything they will through a tantrum and fling shit at your walls.
/r/minnesota literally can't face the reality that Kaham is just terrible
/r/minnesota, within two posts are already delving into numerous conspiracy theories with regarding to the owner. My knowledge of Minnesota sports says he should sell all their sports teams cause they all fricking suck shit (except their WNBA team, they actually win! )
People admitting they actually read the OP-ED section when they don't realize they can skip that since the whole paper is an op-ed.
I can assure you the only reason rural Minnesota would buy your newspaper is to stock up on fire starting material for winter.
"People" actually bought the "Democracy dies in the darkness" bullshit
There's plenty more seething in the thread!

Of course. The train wreck currently happening is that everyone loses regardless of which party wins the presidency. It's all too opinionated. I'm a !grillers and I welcome any movement back to the ground of issues, which this opinion editor(!) proposes.
