That's a strange way of putting it. Newspapers are free to publish anything, by the first amendment to the Constitution.

> but only if the opinion is the one I want otherwise it is not good business

I didn't say that. I said that people want to read opinions. Sometimes they enjoy reading opinions that they disagree with, and arguing with those opinions.
