Their supposedly-factual section has its share as well. Consider the recent misleading article about economists' feelings about market-based education. Scott Alexander points out what it seems to me can only be a deliberately-engineered effort to mislead:
By leaving it at “only a third of economists support vouchers”, the article implies that there is an economic consensus against the policy. Heck, it more than implies it – its title is “Free Market For Education: Economists Generally Don’t Buy It”. But its own source suggests that, of economists who have an opinion, a large majority are pro-voucher.
