There is no agenda here.
Our editorial articles make no push on behalf of advertisers, existing or potential. If we write about products, services, companies or people, it's because we find them interesting. There's no financial relationship here.
As for the politics thing, we have an opinion section ("The Take," which combined our three columnists in one place) but we generally avoid offering it elsewhere. I have seen some opinion in the short briefs posted to The Bulletin, and we do try to keep that to a minimum. But please remember that the views expressed there are the individual writer's, and not the publication's as a whole.
