That's how it works for San Francisco, which is turning out to be not so good for the SF citizens:

The toleration of intolerance has always been a thorny philosophical problem.

The WSJ article is clearly written as an homage to The Onion.

Finally, San Francisco is not a big enough market to swing anything (or almost anything). California is, particularly if there are at least a few producer states whose sympathies lie in the general direction the CA is trying to push (e.g. with vehicle emissions).

Was the WSJ always this bad or did Rupert Murdoch’s purchase take it in a far right direction?

Oh knock it off. Having a conservative opinion =/= “far right”

You're talking about Americans. The democrats are far right and the republicans are extremely far right. Look at the rest of the world

The opinions of rest of the world are irrelevant to us as regards our political debates. You literally don't matter.

The linked article is from their opinion section which is always hit and miss depending on how you lean politically.

The actual reporting done by WSJ is still top tier imo.
