I find the new york times sort of annoying now.

I like them and even set up a script to pull down the homepage as a .pdf each day to read it. Today's would be:

    https://static01.nyt.com/images/2020/12/30/nytfrontpage/scan.pdf

But I found the articles I generally read (mostly links from hn) have a different quality than the front page.

The front page articles seem emotional. They seem opinionated. Bit they're not marked "opinion"

Even if I agree with the opinion, I think they could take the high road.
