It’s true I went to the Houston Chronicle, although I can’t read the article as they have a pay wall.

Amazingly one of the reasons given is the USA has the best post - covid economy in the world of developed nations. Could have fooled me as when we go to the store and pay 100 dollars more for a weeks groceries than just a few years ago (for 2 people!!!) while our pay might be 50 dollars higher per week.

I will also add the Chronicle endorses Sheila Jackson Lee in the primary—The same Lee who just recently tried to pass an anti “white supremacy bill” basically a thought crime law.

I don’t know what the Houston Chronicle used to be like but clearly the editorial board is turning left.

Major Texas Newspaper Endorses Joe Biden

___________________________________________________

Does this paper have lots of subscribers or is it just another rag that is “preaching to the choir” of the irredeemable Left?

I don’t know what the Houston Chronicle used to be like but clearly the editorial board is turning left.

I subscribed to the more conservative Houston Post until they were absorbed by the Chronic-Ill in the mid-90s.

Since the Chronic-Ill took my favorite columnists from the Post, I let my subscription transfer.

The Chronic-Ill at least used to pretend to be balanced back then and I believed they endorsed W over Gore and again over Kerry.

I ended my subscription when I went overseas to work in early 2004, but I still read it whenever I was home.

By around 2010, the paper had shrunk, most of my favorite columnists had retired or moved on, the quality of writing had deteriorated and I just quit reading it.

I’m surprised anybody reads it anymore, to be honest.

" . . . as well as prevent the "chaos, corruption and danger to the nation"

This is the second time in three days that a leftist source has threatened violence if Trump is reelected. I am still convinced that much of the violence in 2020 had a major motive of creating a sense of chaos and danger which would be blamed on Trump even though the perpetrators were 98% lefties.

Sounds just like my local liberal rag. Although the population here is only 40,000 or so.

The Houston Chronicle turned far left over 20 years ago. I subscribed back in the mid 1980s when it was a good paper. Now I won’t even read it for free on the interweb.

The Houston Chronicle endorsed Beto against Cruz, too.

This is a nothingburger.
