Can some explain this to a non American? Why care about who a newspaper endorses? Why shouldn't a newspaper even be allowed to endorse anyone - should they at least pretend to be independent journalists? The whole thing is truly baffling to me, and I don't remember any such thing from past years.

Do newspapers in your country not publish opinion columns or editorials?

They do, but they don't practically tell you to go vote for XYZ.
