The Wall Street Journal is a MAGA newspaper that happens to have some good journalists.
I mean, look at what they published over the last two decades:

I'm paying subscriber of the New York Times. I also read the Financial Times.
They really never published anything close to this garbage.
In 2012, the non-profit newsroom ProPublica revealed that Justice Clarence Thomas secretly took lavish trips with Billionaires. It was a huge story

The Wall Street Journal top editor lashed out:

This is the first time I see the editor of a newspaper publically attacking another newsroom for publishing a huge story.
I wouldn't wipe my ass with the WSJ. They have some great reporters that will privately tell you that they are really ashamed to work there. Rupert Murdoch keeps them around because he needs some people to subscribe and pay. No one will pay money to read non-sense every day. But these great reporters usually jump ship at any good opportunity they get.
