If the Editorial and News functions of a newspaper are kept separate, why do the NYTimes and the Washington Post have no conservatives writing for them?
If the Editorial and News functions of a newspaper are kept separate, why do the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Times not have liberals writing for them. Im way off topic with this. Any further comments from me will be private.

Just because the editorial page or staff may support building a stadium on Nicolett Island for DeLaSalle or R.T. Rybeck, that does not give the news department permission to slant the news in favor of a stadium or the current Mayor. REMINDERS: 1. Be civil!
