I don't see any reason for them to mix additional opinion into their news coverage.
- morgante 11y agoIf it's merely meant to be news coverage, it shouldn't be in the opinion section.
- matt4077 11y agoThis must be the first time someone complains about the NYT newsroom invading the editorial section :) I believe expectations of what constitutes an opinion piece have changed with the advent of blogs/talk radio etc. At the Times, that style is reserved for columnists while the opinion pieces that express the opinion of the institution itself are more measured. In this case, they're just basically endorsing the judge's position.
