The wsj does seem to not cater as much to opinion pieces or clickbait titles. I guess that's what I was asking. I get plenty of opinions and editorials for free these days, I don't want to pay for that even if I agree with them. I miss the outlets that seemed to focus on straight up news.
We had a local paper in my area, The Western Star, that ran for 206 years. It was the last source that I was really dedicated to, because I cared a lot more about local.

- muglug 7y agoRemember that for a paper like the WSJ or New York Times, opinions/editorials consume a tiny fraction of the budget: an editorial on Theranos might cost the newspaper $500, but the series of articles that eventually led to the downfall of the Theranos might easily cost 100 times that.
