All “journalists” should be required to give a political orientation disclamer at the start/byline of each “story” indicating which Presidential and Senate candidates they have voted for over the last 10 years.
Lynn Ashby, editor of the Houston Post, used to vote in alternating primaries (Democrat one year, Republican the next) to stay on the mailing list for candidates of both parties. But he wasn’t out to select the candidate in each party that epitomized that party, he tilts Left like so many in the profession and eventually even has gotten snippy about conservatives (there are a few FR threads that have brought up his name).
