The nation’s newspapers aren’t as antimilitary as people think. Vincent Carroll, editorial-page editor of Denver’s Rocky Mountains News, reports in the Washington Journalism Review that his paper was the only strong antiwar voice among the nation’s 25 largest newspapers prior to war. Here are the positions of some big papers:
The Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, The Dallas Morning News.
The New York Times (“fighting may eventually become necessary”), The Boston Globe.
USA Today, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, the Cleveland Plain Dealer (“a case could be made for international action”), the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
