The WSJ is leftist. Does that answer your question? Keep your eye upon the donut and not upon its hole.
Just because a publication is deemed to be ‘left’ ‘right’ or something else doesn’t in itself make what they write correct or incorrect. Either what the author is reporting is accurate or it is not. Easy enough question.
I’m not one of those who dismisses out of hand what someone says or thinks because I don’t agree with their worldview.
At any rate, I asked cba123 for clarification on what he said, not you. Let him answer for himself - if he can.
