Los Angeles Times owner cites Gaza war as a reason not to endorse Harris

Internal email obtained by Drop Site News clashes with billionaire Patrick Soon-Shiong’s remarks in interview

The billionaire owner of the Los Angeles Times has cited the war in Gaza as a reason for vetoing its endorsement of Kamala Harris for president.

In an email sent to the paper’s top editor, president and chief operating officer, Patrick Soon-Shiong identifies Harris’s support for Israel’s year-long offensive in the Palestinian coastal territory, which he terms as “genocide”, as a compelling reason to withhold support from the Democratic nominee.
