Update: 10/20: P&E reports newspaper endorsements; Obama 115, McCain 38
Editor and Publisher keeps an ongoing tally about which newspapers are endorsing which candidates. As a frame of reference, by E & P's count, John Kerry barely edging George W. Bush in endorsements in 2004 by 213 to 205. At the moment, the count stands at 94 endorsements for Barack Obama and 28 for John McCain. At the moment only the "trendsetting" Storm Lake Times has made an endorsement in Iowa--for Barack Obama.
Note: in parentheses, the paper's endorsement in 2004 of Bush or Kerry). As of 10/19/08
