Billionaire and Democrat megadonor Michael Bloomberg officially announced on Sunday that he was joining the presidential race, which led to an announcement from his news organization, Bloomberg News, that it would not investigate the 77-year-old and would not investigate other Democrats.
In a statement to Bloomberg News employees, Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait wrote: “The place where Mike has had the most contact with Editorial is Bloomberg Opinion: our editorials have reflected his views. David Shipley, Tim O’Brien and some members of the Board responsible for those editorials will take a leave of absence to join Mike’s campaign. We will suspend the Board, so there will be no unsigned editorials.”
