Similar happenings at the Los Angeles Times, as the article mentions:

The announcement came days after Mariel Garza, the head of The Los Angeles Times’s editorial board, resigned in protest after that paper’s owner Patrick Soon-Shiong decided against running a presidential endorsement.

Soon-Shiong is a pharmaceuticals billionaire.

Patrick Soon-Shiong is a South African and American businessman

Sir, another South African has struck the journalism industry.

My paranoia says that this is a deliberate “leak” to show Kamala is the enemy of the barons, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so this is actually intended to mobilize voters for Kamala

Victor Manuel Rocha, a US diplomat who spied for Cuba, pulled a similar maneuver

Rocha’s off-the-cuff remark weeks before the 2002 Bolivian general election threatening to cut American aid to Bolivia over Evo Morales’s support for the coca-growers movement has been credited with boosting Morales’s Movement for Socialism party in the 2002 Bolivian general election — after that, Morales called Rocha his best “campaign manager”

Shoutout to Manuel Rocha

It’s intra-office feuding.

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance).
