> A good researcher describes their study, shows their data and lays their own conclusions. Tangent: I think that this attitude of scientific study can be applied to journalism to create a mode of articles between "neutral" reports and editorials. In the in-between mode, journalists can and should present their evidence without sharing their own conclusions, and then they should present their first-order conclusions (e.g. what the author personally thinks that this data says about reality) in the same article even if their conclusions are opinionated, but should restrain from second-order opinions (e.g. about what the audience should feel or do).
