“OK, I’ll bite, what is/was the “news” in an editorial?”

Based on recent elections and current events in Washington DC, it is “news’ to most Americans, including many “conservatives” that the very people they just elected caused the problem in the first place...

At the end of the column is a call for “activism” as the government is about to dump a few trillion more down the crapper...

Maybe I don’t understand the FR definition of News or Activism?

Bwahahahahahahahaha, that's "news"?
The government has caused, almost, every major problem in the past 5 decades.
Sorry, that ain't "news".

And the call to "activism" was what?
Call your representative or senator?
Gather on the National Mall and call for heads to roll?
Don't pay your income taxes and take the government down by starving it to death?

Look, I really think that you do understand the reasoning.
I also think you're just peeved because so many told you to go, begone, and never darken the door again.
You got, almost, all that from the title of your thread and your first post on the thread and you should be intelligent enough to realize that.

You asked the forum population in general. Several answered you but you don't want the answer that has been given.
So be it.

Now the decision is up to you.
Either live by the owners decision, try to get the owner to change, or leave in a tiff.
