Reliable as a Stopped Clock
The New York Times endorsed Obama, but why do they even bother? That’s like announcing who the DNC has endorsed. The last time the NYT endorsed a Republican was Eisenhower in 1956. They might as well write their next twenty years of presidential endorsement now and just leaves blanks for the name of the Democrat to be filled in later. If I were to predict whether the NYT is going to endorse the Democrat nominee in 2028, the only variable I have to worry about it is whether the NYT will still be around.
So I will not make that prediction.

If the New York Times had its way, only Democrats would be allowed to run, and everyone would be required to buy a copy of the “state” newspaper.

A stopped clock is right twice per day. They are a clock that is off by 6 hours, but still running. They are never right.

Have to agree with Corsair here. The only time the New York Times has been right in the past 50 years was when they posted the start times for showings of Fahrenheit 911 when it played in New York City theaters.

zdomain = 1+z+z^2 + ….. = Zippy T.P.H. I’ll bet you don’t go postal you go assymtotic.
If you let Democrats run they will NEVER be right….you missed the whole point of the article or was that the point on top of Franks head?

The NYT will be around in 2028. Then the state will operate the media. Profit will not be needed. indeed it will be a crime.
The confused media is promoting some sort of perfect absolute state. A state wise enough to impose social and economic justice throughout the land.
And they imagine that, in such a land, the media will be free and speak truth to power. They have it reversed. That power will speak to them.

It won’t matter who the Democratic nominee will be in 2028, because I expect to be running for re-election then.

You can mark it on your calendar folks…..2008 the year journalism died. It fell on its own sword. It was suicide by verbal diarrhea and a terminal reality starvation.

There is one variable that you forgot. What if a more-left party comes to the mainstream? I’d imagine that the NYT would have a hard time deciding between the marxist party and the communist party. Decisions, decisions.
