L.A. Times editorials editor resigns after owner blocks Harris endorsement

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : In a resignation letter published in full by the Columbia Journalism Review, Garza wrote that "staying silent isn't just indifference, it is complicity" and expressed concern that the move "makes us look craven and hypocritical, maybe even a bit sexist and racist.""How could we spend eight years railing against Trump and the danger his leadership poses to the country and then fail to endorse the perfectly decent Democrat challenger -- who we previously endorsed for the U.S. Senate?"
27% : In the resignation letter, she said that she told herself endorsements don't matter -- particularly in a state like California -- and that the paper had practically endorsed Harris already with editorials describing Trump as unfit.
