You have to ignore the socialist bias, though, which is rampant not
only in the editorials but in the headlines, placement of articles,
and choice of coverage.

Or hadn't you ever noticed all the "government needs to fund the industry"
stuff in there?  They never seem to cover people who think the government
should get the hell out of the industry, unless it's to scorn them when
they can't avoid mentioning it (e.g. the Bush administration is always
"dragging its heels" or "resisting" the valiant errors, I mean efforts, of
the socialists).

Their technical coverage is great -- if they'd only leave us to
decide our own personal politics they'd be a great newspaper.
