To Further Muddy The Voting Waters

In so doing, the paper joined The Philadelphia Inquirer, the Allentown Morning Call, and the Scranton Times-Tribune. Clinton has yet to garner a major Pennsylvania paper’s endorsement.

OK, WTF is going on with papers "backing" candidates? Fox News gets slammed all the time for being biased and far, FAR from impartial. Now we have papers backing candidates. What happens to "truth" and "accuracy" for the next four years if "their" candidate wins? Or if "the paper's opponent" wins?

As if voters don't have enough to process they can no longer rely on any news outfit to actually give truth. Facts? Forget about it. We don't need know stinkin' facts! We know what we know, and what we know is what we want, and that's all you'll hear about!

Man, this country's just absolutely *fucked*.
