This newspaper has not supported a Republican for president since 1972. But we believe President Trump, for all his faults, is the better choice this year.

Klueless journos climb on bandwagon so they don’t become completely irrelevant

See number 8. This is now a “fault”.

Congratulations Pennsylvania!
Trump is going win! Anyone who draws a crowd of 58,000 is on the road to victory!
There is huge support for Trump in Oregon too. It’s time for the Oregon TV channels and newspapers to grow a pair and come out from under the thumb of witch governor Brown.
Show you are free KPTV KGW KATU KOIN!!
And how about the Oregonian and the Statesman?
Are you still going to do what Brown demands?
A governor who has enabled 6 months of riots, arson, property destruction and murder?
She has destroyed the state and the city of Portland.

Either they’re too embarrassed to endorse a guy with dementia or they’re 100% confident that Philly can steal this.

I was looking for their reasons for supporting him.

I expect they don’t say, or even use the word “endorse”.

Typical back-handed “support” from the so-called “Press”.

Will this have any impact on PA voters on Election Day?

Maybe the paper is looking at it as a business strategy. Western PA is on fire for the president; they don't want to bleed any more subscriptions by opposing him?

I don’t believe newspaper editorials affect voters much these days.

It is best seen as further evidence of the weakness of the Biden campaign—evidence that Democrat turnout for Biden will be below normal levels.

I have not bought P-G for 30-40 year because of their total bias, so you can imagine my shock when I read this earlier today.

I think it is becoming apparent that the msm knows that slow joe is toast and they want to climb out of the hole that they dug for themselves.

When Trump wins PA, the P-G will be able to strut and not have to admit that they were pimping the 8-12 point joe win.

"Will this have any impact on PA voters on Election Day?"

Oh yes. I believe so. It will impact those that use the newspaper to help them think.

Revised instructions for the sheeple.

Sounds like some of the responses in the OP’s link are liberals saying they’re cancelling their subscription with the newspaper. If saving subscriptions were the primary consideration, they would have endorsed Biden or remained neutral.

No, Pittsburgh and DEFINITELY outside western PA is more R anyway. I mean, Pitt may be questionable, but it’s stronger in R than most “cities” are.

You will still have N words voting Democrat’s for generations

C'mon man. You sound like joe and 'those ugly people out there'.

That is no way to get the black vote, and you know that many are now switching to Trump.

Do they normally endorse this close to election day? Wouldn’t it have been better a few weeks ago?
