Journalists at @nytimes, @washingtonpost, @BostonGlobe, and @HoustonChron are among dozens of reporters, editors, and other news people who& #39;ve given tens of thousands of dollars to political candidates and causes. https://www.businessinsider.com/journalists-reporters-donating-money-democrats-biden-bernie-aoc-trump-politics-2020-10">https://www.businessinsider.com/journalis...
