[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point of an opinion piece is to express an opinion, ideally supported with an explanation. If you'd prefer not to read opinions which differ from those you already hold, then by all means don't read them. If you're open-minded, read and reflect. You may not change your mind, or you might, but exposure to alternative perspectives is intellectually healthy; deliberately ignoring other points of view is intellectually dishonest - you don't have to agree with anyone else, but it's conducive to informed discourse to know why other people hold opinions different from your own. [/quote] It is not just the opinion pieces, obviously. It is the coverage. The headlines. The NYT may be better than most, but that is why we hold it to a higher standard. I am seriously considering canceling.[/quote]
