You know the routine.
For me, I am voting Mixed, since while its business coverage is excellent, and the news coverage is good enough, the opinion section is not nearly up to that standard.

I see. My favorites are probably those too. I also like the opinion pages as well to an extent b/c of the comments and the fact you get to see what the conservative elite is thinking and such. However this is not reflected in my rating since I am rating what I objectively think about it, not how useful it is.

Pretty hard to dispute that they have the best coverage on most matters. They don't inject political junk  opinions into their stuff like most papers.

And I like the editorials quite a bit - perhaps my favorite part. Many of them are stupid, but most are excellent, and the stupid ones help validate the proper world perspective.

I don't follow tech in any way though.

Their content is excellent.  The editorial board sits around in leather chairs, wearing monocles, while the servants bring them tea.  FP/HP
