Alongside its endorsement of Kamala Harris, the Los Angeles Times editorial board had also planned a multi-part series against Donald Trump before the whole thing was quashed by owner Patrick Soon-Shiong, TheWrap has learned.
According to internal memos viewed by TheWrap, the series, tentatively called “The Case Against Trump,” would have ran throughout this week. The endorsement of Kamala Harris would then have been published on Sunday.
However, Soon-Shiong ordered the cancellation 0f the series and the endorsement without explanation, current and now former staffers have confirmed, setting off a massive crisis for the 142-year-old paper.
It’s not about conservative hands or foreign hands. It’s about wealthy hands. They don’t want to shoot their wealth in the foot by pissing off powerful people who could turn around and hurt their money. Burn their fucking money and distribute their goods and meat among the people to barter with in a new society built from the ashes of their goddamn empire.
