Should newspapers endorse candidates?

In today's age, it has gotten ridiculously biased to where they are no longer reporting the truth, and in some cases make up so called facts to sway readers. Although it may have existed in my youth, it wasn't even close to what it is today.

Quite frankly, a lot of articles people see as biased aren't really all that biased. The biggest two problems I often see are inflammatory headlines and too much "both-sides-ism" that actually can make things seem less one-sided than they really are in an effort to not appear biased. The latter is an over-correction to often inaccurate claims of bias in the media.
