Reporter leaves Trump son-in-law’s paper over endorsement
[su_publirb]
It was not credible that the Observer‘s endorsement of Trump had nothing to do with family ties.
Following a fawning editorial endorsing Donald Trump in the New York Observer, which is owned by Trump’s son-in-law, the paper’s national political reporter, Ross Barkanannounced he was leaving.
“I knew going into this there would be complications with covering Donald Trump and working for the New York Observer,” Barkan told CNNMoney. “I did not imagine that the events would transpire the way they did.”
