Beta News Coverage

To the Editor:

I read with interest the article about Beta's return ("Beta seizes house from AZD," Jan. 11). After I finished reading the article, I assumed that it was an opinion piece since the article was clearly biased, starting with the title.

After I looked at it again, I saw that it was listed under "News." I am admittedly from the old school but I believe that news articles should report the facts and leave bias for the opinion page.

I saw that you have an "editorial policy" but I was curious as to whether you have a policy for news stories? While I am aware that it is virtually impossible for a reporter to be completely objective in his or her writings, I believe that The Dartmouth clearly crossed the line.
