Why is it acceptable for news organizations to endorse a candidate? I thought the responsibility of newspapers were to report the news, not make the news. I hate that an organization uses its paper to push a candidate in your face. Fair and impartial is what I want. What do you think?

It has been interesting to me for a long time why this happens. Why is it o.k. for newspapers to do this and not television stations? Although, we as a television station, don't have an editorial department.
