DMN editorial page editor Keven Ann Willey said something interesting today at the Julia Sweeney talk series at Maggiano’s at NorthPark Center: that the Morning News tracks its opinion columns to be certain the editorial section maintains a 50-50 balance of liberal and conservative views. After she finished speaking, I asked Keven exactly how they do that — after all, it’s not always easy to categorize ideologies in such black-and-white terms. Her answer: the Morning News looks at a person’s overall philosophy and published works to make that call. That’s one spreadsheet I’d like to take a gander at.
