N.J. Paper Endorses Governor, But Admits He’s Not The Best Candidate
This is just another example of why newspapers shouldn’t be in the business of endorsing political candidates. That puts me in a minority in this business, but I firmly believe that newspapers should concern themselves with providing candidates’ views, stances and records for readers, and letting readers decide for themselves which candidate deserves their vote. There is little in this world as unimportant as a journalist’s opinion. (Who is going to be the first to ask, “Well, then, why do you have this blog?” It would be a good question to ask, you know.)

Your blog is just that….YOUR blog so it is all right to state your opinions. Why not? Just keep your opinions out of the paper, it is not your paper you only work there. You should state the facts and let people make their own conclusion which you seem to be doing anyway. I personally feel you are on the right track! Good job!
