More opinion than fact in Isikoff story

Like all other mainstream media outlets, the Daily Herald has begun mixing news with opinion. On March 31, it included a story by Michael Isikoff of Newsweek. This is the guy who inflamed the Muslim world with his claim that a Koran was flushed down a toilet, only to have to retract the story later.

The latest article contained more speculation and questions than facts. Despite Isikoff's resume as a left-leaning commentator from a left-leaning publication, you chose to place his piece on page 5 of your "newspaper." Who makes these decisions?
