@Politics: ‘Ultimate expression’ of both sides-ism: Mehdi Hasan takes down LA Times’ non-endorsement. In English.
Mehdi Hasan criticized the Los Angeles Times' decision not to endorse a presidential candidate, calling it the "ultimate expression of both sides-ism" in media[2]. He argued that journalists should prioritize supporting democracy and not shy away from taking a stand, especially when faced with figures like Donald Trump, whom some former officials have labeled as fascist[2]. This decision by the LA Times, influenced by its owner Patrick Soon-Shiong, reflects a broader trend where major newspapers, including the Washington Post, have refrained from endorsements, sparking significant debate and criticism[1][3].
