OUCH:
Look What Happened to AZ Newspaper After if Endorsed Clinton
Death threats, cancellations, angry
callers. That’s what the Arizona Republic is dealing with after endorsing
Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton for president.
According to WZ, the publication was suffering after endorsing a
Democrat candidate for president for the first time in its history. Founded in
1890, the Republic has endorsed a Republican candidate for president in every
election before this one.
Editorial page editor of Phil
Boas said, “We’re feeling the weight of our history,” The New York Times reported In its endorsement of Clinton, the
Republic opined that GOP nominee Donald Trump “responds to criticism with the
petulance of verbal spit wads.”
“That’s beneath our national
dignity,” it continued. “Trump’s long history of
objectifying women and his demeaning comments about women during the campaign
are not just good-old-boy gaffes,” the editorial added.
“They are evidence of deep character
flaws. They are part of a pattern,” said the Republic without intending any
irony as it endorsed a candidate whose pattern of deep character flaws would
have toppled her long ago if not for the sycophantic adoration of the liberal mainstream
media.
Now readers have
been cancelling their subscriptions at a furious clip —
one cancellation every 10 minutes, as of Thursday — outraged that the
paper would openly support Hillary
Clinton.
However, Boas said that he does not
regret the publication’s decision.
“We’re never in unison on anything,
but it wasn’t a difficult thing,” he said. “It was the kind of thing that
just evolved over time.”
Perhaps it’s only right that they
suffer for their decision. They should have known that Arizona, a red state, would not be pleased. Perhaps the media
should stay out of politics altogether.
And let’s not forget: Spit wads
didn’t kill anyone at Benghazi. Share this story on Facebook and

Clinton.
