Summary: Looking for unbiased reporting? It's not here
Comment: Call me idealistic and hopelessly naive but I would love to find a daily paper that doesn't shamelessly pursue a shallow and impossibly simplistic agenda. I wouldn't say the Journal is necessarily "conservative" but rather supports specific aspects of the conservative ideology i.e. limited government intervention and the absolute right to profits at any cost. Apparently anyone or anything that limits your ability to enrich yourself, regardless of the collateral damage that enrichment might cause in both the short- and long-term, must be vehemently opposed. In an overly simplistic, "you're-with-us-or-against-us" kind of way. Reminiscent of the arguments the old industrial magnates used in the holy pursuit of greater profit - as they polluted fresh water supplies. The ends surely justify the means. If the Journal just stuck to reporting the news objectively, and providing their insightful commentary, I would be a subscriber for life. But after enduring 4 years of this, I've finally had enough. Will try the new Bloomberg/Business Week for my financial stories and see if I can find my objective coverage.

Summary: Editorials are seriously skewed for Grand Old Predators
Comment: I call Jonah Goldberg "Mr. Wall Street Journal, himself!"
On the Editorial Page Goldberg consistently denigrates and scapegoats the Common Man. A sycophant to Big Business & the Top 1%, Goldberg weekly lowers himself to the missionary position. As far as I am concerned, the man has no brain, and he has sold his Soul. The essence of Goldberg's Being?... is to hussle honoraria, and sell them as intellectual credit default swaps.

Summary: Still The Best Paper In The USA.
Comment: First: the papers market coverage is the best in the USA. The Regular wrap-up features & the Heard On The Street column give colorful nuances to the information. The amount of information itself can be overwhelming to absorb. From the NYSE, junk bonds, to blue chips, this paper is good for both the casual, or serious investor. For me the often underpublicized & finest part of the paper is the investigations & feature reporting. The Journals reporters seem to have more freedom over their work than their competitors, & this approach pays off. Most times column four of the front page has a story that will disgust the reader, or he/she will laugh out loud. It is odd & a bit sad the WSJ's staff rarely gets their kudos when compared to the Washington Post or NYTimes.
Also, of note: the special sections the paper runs from time to time on technology, e-bussiness, international markets, mutual funds, & education are often exceptional. This is usually the part of the paper I enjoy most, because they come at the story presented from most every angle possible. Now the negatives: the paper should stick to the areas I've just described. The arts & lifestyle coverage is mediocre & is less well done & in depth than say the NYTimes. Only Joe Morgenstern's movie reviews are occasionally worth raeding. Granted, I rarely go to the movies. Lastly, the editorial pages are often the ideological opposite of those which one finds in the Times. I like them, & often agree with their "Milton Friedman" points of view. But, like the Times they give little room for opposing perspectives. Still, it is the nations best newspaper.
