Headline is misleading, it should read something like "WP becomes 2nd major US newspaper to be embroiled in scandal as billionaire owners squash Harris endorsements"

What was the first?

LA Times. In both cases editors were set to endorse Harris and both had the Billionaire owners step in and stop it.

Should tell you all you need to know about why Billionaires bought the media.
