DailyCaller: The Dallas Morning News is paying a steep price for endorsing Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, in the form of canceled subscriptions and loud protests.
The endorsement broke a 75-year streak in the paper’s history of endorsing Republicans, and generated a lot of reader pushback in the form of angry comments and vows to unsubscribe from the paper. Although Dallas is relatively liberal, the state hasn’t gone Democrat in a presidential election in 40 years.
“Certainly we’ve paid a price for our presidential recommendation,” Dallas Morning News editor Mike Wilson said in an email to Poynter. Wilson acknowledged some of that price came in dropped subscriptions, although he declined to reveal to Poynter exactly how many.
““But then, we write our editorials based on principle, and sometimes principle comes at a cost,” Wilson continued in the email.”
Well where have we heard this before?
how on earth could any sane person endorse Killary? She should be in Federal Prison, is on her deathbed and can only be described as a pathological liar and grifter?
We were buying the paper on Sundays in Lufkin TX. 160 miles SE of Dallas. No More.
That’s how you do it, hit them in the pocket book. Make a statement. Rush said today that the NFL is taking a hit with game tickets and viewership. Go ahead Caperdick keep taking a knee and a fist because you won’t be using either soon. Boycott business who place ads in The Dallas Morning News. Contact those businesses and tell them why you’re boycotting their business. Money talks.
Never Trumpers, take heed.
I didn’t know that stupidity and evil were principles.
Was that paper also purchased by Warren Buffett?
Richmond Times Dispatch was and they endorsed Gary Johnson.
This is what happens to your business if you hire progressives: They, like Hillary, lie, cheat, steal, and con their way into a decision-making position, which they then use to push their insanity onto others, destroying your business in the process.
Then they hop onto their next host, and start over – leaving you with less than nothing.
Gee Wally, whutta surprise! They threw their lot in with the Communists, Criminals and Corruption and now they’re left scratchin their collective asses tryin to figger out whut happened.
If brains wuz dynamite they wouldn’t be able to blow their Collective noses!
THAT’S whut happened!
Oh please! Support for Hillary and “principles” don’t exist in the same universe.
Keep up the boycott boys and girls. It’s working in Portland. Cancelled the Pravdagonian. (They insist it’s the Oregonian, but what do they know?) Paper now 15-20% of the original size, no longer published 7 days a week. They’re swirling the drain. They’d rather die as leftists than be unbiased and survive.
it doesnt pay to be stupid.
The 47% on Welfare might argue with that Charlie!
I have some good news for the good people of Dallas.
The New York Post is available by digital subscription.
Are cities REALLY libstain, or have libstains simply figured out how to rig them?
We’ve rightfully stopped watching network television,cable television, going to theaters etc, because we do not adhere to their propaganda. Newspapers and magazines should be treated the same. We can not continue to financially support the enemy. they are the enemy once they began attacking anyone/everyone with an opposing viewpoint.
But what am I going to line the bottom of my bird cage with?
These idiots tried to give me “free” papers to get me started. . . I called and told them I’d turn them in for littering my lawn if they didn’t stop.
@Herd Mentality:
Heh! I’m pretty sure you’re just joking, but in case not, when you get something from your grocery store’s meat dept, ask them to double wrap it. You’ll have a nice waterproof piece of cage liner.
I was a longtime subscriber until the year they named the Illegal Immigrant as “Texan of the Year”. Subscription cancelled!
“Trump’s values are hostile to conservatism,” the editorial board wrote.
And Hillary’s aren’t? Give me a break.
