Even if you don't like the idea of the opinion section in newspapers, the Washington Post seems like they're going for the worst of all possible worlds here by keeping the section but pushing it towards only reflecting Jeff Bezos' personal opinions.
But I also don't see a problem with the idea of having the opinion section in the first place. Not every topic worth covering can be boiled down to just the facts and there is a long history and a lot of value to be found in consuming well formed opinions on a particular topic from a variety of voices in addition to just the facts. As long as media outlets clearly separate the two, those who want just the news can steer clear of the opinion section entirely.
