The Economist

The Economist shifted from reporting positions to a full endorsement today. I consider them to be right leaning, but as you’ll see in the article, they flip back and forth between parties from election to election.

In 1980, The Economist endorsed Ronald Reagan. It offered no endorsement in 1984 or 1988. In 1992 it endorsed Bill Clinton, in 1996 Bob Dole, in 2000 George W. Bush, and in 2004 John Kerry.
