Standard republican newspaper fear-mongering. This is classic Rupert Murdoch culture war crap guaranteed to rile up the base.

There's also quite a few articles, all with hard repblican bent, that are saying the same thing. I wonder why? /sarcasm

Basically, do your own research, rather than listen to these conspiratorial rags. Or at least acknowledge their obvious bias.

I just read your article and the situation is every bit as bad as the other poster makes it sound.

WSJ is not predominantly right leaning.

The only thing that wreaks of bias is you.

At least acknowledge how dismissive you are to this.

Isn't the WSJ owned by Rupert Murdoch, who just had to pay almost a billion dollars to settle a lawsuit about one of his media companies knowingly, repeatedly, gratuitously lying on air? Why should anyone trust anything coming from his media empire ever again? They won't even admit fault or commit to changing their practices.

Rupert Murdoch owns/controls both Wall Street Journal and Fox News.

Both have significant ethical problems in smearing "just the facts" with terrible propaganda op-ed's disguised as "news", like this article.

As opposed to the New York Times putting the opinions into the “news” articles.

This is an opinion piece, so I wouldn't necessarily attach the organization's journalistic credibility to it.

This is in WSJ Opinion. It’s right leaning.
