Another OMBUDSPOOP has it both ways:

As with any editorial opinion, Rowe says, the decision will have no effect on coverage in the news pages.

But it will affect letters to the editors and guest opinions chosen for publication. Letters supporting Kerry have been outnumbering those backing Bush by a ratio of more than 5-to-1.

So we may assume therefore, Mr. Public Editor Ombudspoop (what is with these fancy-dancy titles?) that your choosing letters by a 5-1 ratio reflects no, I repeat, NO bias in your daily reporting. This is like saying despite twenty inches of rain, the ground is bone dry.

LET THEM EAT ENDORSEMENTS!
