Gary Peters, D-Mich. The decision gives Rogers a prominent in-state boost as both parties pour attention and money into a race that could help determine control of the Senate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The editorial board did not merely favor Rogers. It delivered a pointed warning about El-Sayed\u2019s efforts to remove years of old social-media posts, podcast episodes and YouTube videos from public view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Paper Questions El-Sayed\u2019s Deleted Online Record<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El-Sayed \u201chas worked so hard covering his tracks leading up to this Senate race that it\u2019s impossible to know who he really is or where he would stand in the Senate,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.detroitnews.com\/story\/opinion\/editorials\/2026\/09\/16\/detroit-news-endorses-mike-rogers-us-senate-race-michigan-over-abdul-el-sayed\/91674500007\/\">The Detroit News wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The newspaper cited deleted posts concerning America and the aftermath of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, along with roughly 100 removed YouTube videos that it said offered an unflattering look at the Democrat\u2019s cultural views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA candidate who feels the need to hide his past from voters is not someone who can be trusted to be the same person after Election Day as he was on the campaign trail,\u201d the board argued.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El-Sayed\u2019s past commentary has become a central Republican line of attack. Fox News reported that his old remarks included proposing an end to Fourth of July fireworks, suggesting that the Second Amendment be replaced with a right to health care and voicing support at one point for the \u201cdefund the police\u201d movement. He has also criticized football\u2019s ties to \u201ctoxic masculinity\u201d and \u201cbro culture.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El-Sayed\u2019s campaign previously said some material was removed \u201cto prevent any old posts from being taken out of context.\u201d Around the 25th anniversary of the 9\/11 attacks, the campaign also said El-Sayed \u201chas always unequivocally condemned terrorism and the September 11 attacks,\u201d according to Fox News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Republicans have repeatedly described El-Sayed as a socialist because of his support for policies including Medicare for All. El-Sayed, however, has distanced himself from that label, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/livecoverage\/trump-vance-midterm-elections-2026-rnc\/card\/house-republican-leaders-paint-democrats-as-crazy--mjdzduYENPdbt92vDrhu\">reporting has noted<\/a> that he is not affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rogers Wins Praise for Experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Detroit News reached a markedly different conclusion about Rogers, calling the former congressman \u201cthe prototype of a United States Senator.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rogers served seven terms in the House and rose to chair the House Intelligence Committee. Before Congress, he served in the Army and worked as an FBI special agent. After leaving the House in 2015, he entered the private sector and focused on cybersecurity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMike Rogers is clearly the best choice for Michigan\u2019s U.S. Senate seat and gets our endorsement,\u201d the board wrote, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigannewssource.com\/2026\/09\/detroit-news-backs-rogers-after-endorsing-stevens-in-democratic-primary\/\">Michigan News Source<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The endorsement is particularly notable because the newspaper supported Rep. Haley Stevens in the Democratic primary before El-Sayed defeated her. Founded in 1873, The Detroit News remains one of Detroit\u2019s two major daily newspapers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trump Put His Weight Behind Rogers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump endorsed Rogers in July, giving the Republican what his campaign described as the president\u2019s \u201ccomplete and total\u201d support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m grateful to have President Trump\u2019s complete and total endorsement,\u201d Rogers said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/rogersforsenate.com\/news\/president-trump-endorses-mike-rogers-for-us-senate\">campaign statement<\/a>. \u201cHe knows that we have what it takes to win this seat and deliver real results for hard-working families.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump again urged Michigan voters to support Rogers after the August primary, when Rogers and El-Sayed formally secured their parties\u2019 nominations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The race remains highly competitive. An <a href=\"https:\/\/emersoncollegepolling.com\/\">Emerson College Polling\/Nexstar Media survey<\/a> found El-Sayed at 48% and Rogers at 46%, with the two-point difference inside the poll\u2019s three-point credibility interval. A Fox News survey conducted a month earlier showed Rogers ahead by four points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Michigan hosting one of the country\u2019s most closely watched open-seat contests, The Detroit News has now placed its institutional weight behind the Trump-backed Republican \u2014 while making El-Sayed\u2019s deleted record a central issue for voters to consider before Election Day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of Michigan\u2019s oldest and most prominent newspapers has chosen a side in the state\u2019s highly competitive Senate battle \u2014 and it is backing the candidate endorsed by President Donald Trump.
