I wish that more people on the left would finance blatantly partisan outfits as efficiently as the right does. WSJ's opinion pieces (and some of their reporting too, to be honest) channel the Heritage Foundation way too much for my tastes.

The opinion pieces' use of fancy words tend to obscure the fact that it's filled with junk economics that only very few people actually believe in. Then you have all these people on the right defend themselves with this, and journalists accept it because surely one side of the political spectrum couldn't possibly be guided by lies.

Financing that does not make me a happy camper




Agreed that much of the WSJ's opinion pieces are basically trash wrapped in tinfoil. Also agreed that their front page articles have a noticeable fiscal conservative lean.

I'll still support them as my news source where I don't have to see vitriolic, polarizing headlines.


Yeah they have super interesting reporting, especially the business reports. Went on a bit of a rant but was subscribed for a long while.

I'd like to say I cancelled out of principle but really it was more that I couldn't find time to read it anymore
