I'm a subcriber and occasional columnist for the THE and I've found their OA coverage to be almost universally poor. Most of the feature articles are written by people who oppose OA for some reason (either publisher [including scholarly assocition] representatives mroe concerned with their publishing profits [surpluses] than academic communication; or academics who've not properly looked at the proposals and who conflate OA with removing peer review, or with Author-pays Gold OA only). Their staff articles are usually just as wrong-headed.
