The New York Times’s editorial board is veering sharply away from its traditional closed-door endorsement process for 2020 Dems
The New York Times’s editorial board is veering sharply away from its traditional closed-door endorsement process for Democratic presidential aspirants, conducting interviews with the 2020 Democratic contenders on the record and airing parts of the discussions — along with the board’s final decision — on its FX show, “The Weekly.”
“For the first time, interviews with the editorial board will be filmed, and portions may be broadcast as part of a special episode for the Times’ new documentary series The Weekly,” deputy editorial page editor Kathleen Kingsbury wrote in a pitch to a presidential campaign, according to an email obtained by POLITICO. An official from a second campaign confirmed also receiving the Times's pitch.
“These illuminating endorsement interviews have historically happened behind closed doors,” she wrote in a memo, “so we've decided to experiment with a new level of openness.” The Times’s decision to give viewers a glimpse into the process is a break with the traditionally back-room proceedings and demonstrates how the paper is increasingly adding a television component to showcase its journalism.
