Actually the article states the views very clearly: orthodox rabbis who believe deeply in their mindset but accept modern life's progresses as not being a threat to them. They deeply believe something yet accept/tolerate those without the same strict views. I find it to be a good compromise (for them, not for me.) I'll give you that "progressive" was not a good word, though I was talking about whatever you'll call the rabbis described in the article.
