Yeah, THAT article is written from an objective point of view.

Call me crazy but aren't all points of view subjective?

I don't think there is such a thing as an objective point of view...
Sure, all points of view are subjective. However, when someone is trying to use an article to support a point they've made about something and the article starts out with such ridiculously obvious bias, it kind of puts a damper on the effectiveness of their argument. At least in my mind. [/b][/quote]
I don't think this is an article at all - calling it an article suggests it's news, which is supposed to be objective, when obviously that's not the point of the piece of writing.

I'd call it an opinion piece, so he's allowed to have whatever bias he wants.
