The opinion section of the above named newspaper never fails to amuse. The new owners have been giving somewhat greater space to other than the oh so right of right opinions of the paper's history. A few more left of center letters in the letters section, even actual opinion pieces, heaven help us. I have seen my own opinion reflected there, which is that of relief of seeing a few more positions closer to my own. I also have seen those letters which state that if the reader wanted to see "that kind" of opinion or coverage, they could read the LA Times, and thereby threaten to stop subscribing. That is the part that amuses, since I have more than once thought I should cancel the Register, if only for the sake of my blood pressure.
Now that they have actually begun to balance their coverage, Lord knows we can't tolerate that sort of thing, right?
