Is that still true? Fox, WSJ, Politico, Washington Post etc. - so many are taking on conservativism. Even 'moderate liberals' are becoming 'conservative-lite', to show how open minded they are and bring people together.
There is kind of a schism happening where Journos are often very left-leaning but the press owners are a conservative (or flipflopping) elite. You can see this exact effect in Germany: https://cdn.statcdn.com/Infographic/images/normal/33595.jpeg
But a lot of press supervisory boards are staffed with members of a political party.
NY Times the main newspaper and it mostly aligns with the left. Not sure what’s confusing about that. The others aren’t the main newspaper of that city.
It’s not a rule or law but an observation and it does seem pretty accurate.
I’m not sure what you’re asking, I don’t read the LA Times, was it bought out by a known right-wing wealthy person or something?

The NY Post and Wall Street Journal are among the main newspapers in NYC.

The owner has openly killed left-wing editorial and supported the right (including Trump).

If you can find evidence for it. It doesn't seem true in NY or LA.
Yo. Ask any person what is the main newspaper of Nyc and I bet they don’t say “Ny Post” or “Wall Street Journal”. It is a true observation. Now go to Ricketsville, Nebraska and ask if their newspaper aligns with their political views. I bet it does.
By your own admission of the LA Times this was a recent shift, so it was true before.
That’s my point, most people in the US naturally tie 1 city to 1 newspaper even though there may be multiple. That newspaper is usually representative of the view points of the majority of the population.
Only because in recent decades there's been a huge dieoff of newspapers. In the 1980s and before it was quite typical for a US city of any size to have multiple newspapers (as NYC still has). You would have at the very least a Democratic-leaning and Republican-leaning one, and you would often find others (for instance evening newspapers which were published later in the day and had more up to date news than the morning papers).
