The Washington Post announced it will not endorse a candidate in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, marking a shift toward a non-endorsement policy it plans to follow in future races. According to sources, an endorsement for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris was drafted but went unpublished after Amazon founder Jeff Bezos reportedly intervened. However, publisher Will Lewis clarified in a column that the decision aimed to return to the paper's "non-endorsement" roots. This change has drawn criticism from a former executive editor, raising discussions about the Post’s role in political discourse.
