Of the nation’s 72 newspapers that have a circulation of over 100,000 readers, only two endorsed Donald Trump for president, according to Wikipedia.

Overall, Hillary Clinton had an even 500 newspaper and magazine endorsements while Trump had 26.

There were more “Not Donald Trump” endorsements (32) than Trump endorsements (26).

The Las Vegas Review-Journal and the Florida Times-Union were the only two daily newspapers with circulations over 100,000 to endorse Trump. Seven of the 72 newspapers with circulations over 100,000 didn't give an endorsement.

USA Today broke its tradition of not endorsing presidential candidates by telling its readers that Trump wasn't fit to be president.

In Michigan, none of the 13 daily newspapers tracked by Wikipedia endorsed Trump. The Detroit News endorsed Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson. The rest supported Clinton.

The Secretary of State's office says the official voting results will be finalized at the end of the month when the Board of State Canvassers meets to certify the results.

In the most recent edition of the Michigan Education Association's online magazine, a retired Michigan teacher made a claim intended to portray how poorly teachers were paid years ago.

The October issue of the MEA’s “Voice Magazine” said this:

“Penny Letts remembers. The former middle school math teacher from Huron County’s Harbor Beach started her career 49 years ago making $6,000 a year, ‘and my friends were graduating from college with engineering degrees, making $22,000. They thought I was pretty stupid.’”

ForTheRecord says: It’s very likely that Letts is misremembering events from so long ago. When adjusted for inflation, a $22,000 salary in 1966 would be $164,000 in 2016 dollars.

Government data suggests that the idea that 1966 college graduates took entry level jobs in any profession at a starting salary of $164,000 in 2016 dollars is highly implausible.

According to the U.S. Census, the median income in 1965 for families in the U.S. was $6,900. Just 7 percent of the nation’s families made $15,000 or more that year.

And while entry-level engineers coming out of college have among the highest-paying starting salaries, they don’t come near $164,000 a year.

According to Michigan Tech University, the median entry-level salary for engineers in 2016 ranged from $55,880 in environmental engineering to $68,510 for software developers.

While Letts can’t be blamed for not remembering something correctly from nearly 50 years ago, the MEA certainly should have questioned the teacher’s recollections before publishing them.

That they failed to do so is part of a persistent MEA pattern.
