Newspapers Endorse Kerry Over Bush

HeadlineOct 25, 2004

The magazine Editor and Publisher is reporting Senator John Kerry has now won the endorsement of 122 newspapers — 53 more than President Bush. At least 33 papers that endorsed Bush four years ago have opted not to endorse him this year. Several newspapers including the Tampa Tribune and Detroit News have opted to endorse neither Bush nor Kerry. The headline in the Time Picayune of New Orleans read “No One To Champion.” Over the weekend Kerry won the endorsement of The Washington Post and the Orlando Sentinel, which gave him a sweep of major papers in Florida. Meanwhile Bush won the much coveted endorsement of the Columbus Dispatch in Ohio.
