He talks about the 1984 debate leading up to the immigration act of ‘86
I was hoping to see some evidence, not some blogger talking about it, but thanks anyway.
It come from their famous op ed 'In Praise of Huddled Masses'.
Here's one:
"The Wall Street Journal, like Murdoch, is decidedly open borders. In 1984, the WSJ editorial board wrote, 'If Washington still wants to do something about immigration, we propose a five-word constitutional amendment: There shall be open borders.'"

Thanks. Looks like the WSJ was in favor of legal immigration, back then. What a shocker.
