2016 Presidential Endorsements

As we close in on the 2016 U.S. Presidential election, I thought that it would be a good time to post an updated list of the 2016 Presidential endorsements from prominent newspapers, websites and magazines.  As you can see, it's pretty lopsided in favor or Hillary Clinton.  If you have a discerning mind, that should tell you a great deal.

For Hillary Clinton: 
Here a several trends that I noticed:
  1. There were very few major media endorsements for Donald Trump, that's telling.
  2. Several right wing leaning publications coped out and endorsed Gary Johnson in an attempt to distance themselves from Donald Trump while at the same time not endorsing Hillary Clinton.  I have to believe that deep down they also know that Gary Johnson has no business in the White House. 
  3. Several publications also coped out by not endorsing anyone or specifically endorsing against one candidate (namely Donald Trump) but not taking a stand and then endorsing any other candidate.  Weak.  
  4. The Las Vegas Review Journal is the largest newspaper to endorse Donald Trump, but keep in mind, The Las Vegas Review Journal is owned by right wingnut Sheldon Adelson. 
  5. The Crusader is the official newspaper of the KKK, they think Donald Trump would make a great President.  
  6. Wikipedia has a great list here.
