If democracy does indeed die in darkness, then good newspapers have to stand up against those who would turn off the lights. The decision by the owners of the Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post not to endorse any presidential candidate is despicable.

When I was a newspaper editor, we used to send reporters to Paramus. "The Times paid $9,236.90 for my round-trip ticket, tax included, and the benefits began not in the air, but in the Turkish Airlines lounge at Kennedy International Airport."

A description of a ship’s crew (and some newsrooms I’ve been in) from David Grann’s The Wager: “Highwaymen, burglars, pickpockets, debauchees, adulterers, gamesters, lampooners. bastard-getters, imposters, panderers, parasites, ruffians, hypocrites, threadworn jack-a-dandies.”

This commercial was made 7 years ago in the UK. What are the chances a similar one would be made in the US?
