Wall St. Journal & BPL controversy
 
I can't link because it's a pay site but today's Wall St. Journal has
a large article on BPL and the ham radio movement opposing it that
seems pretty balanced to me, although you'd expect them to be pro-BPL.
The article does call the ham community a "quirky bunch." LOL.

Interesting... I thought the BPL controversy ranged further than the
hobbyist and toy radio operator.

Yeah, BPL will affect more than just ham radio.

The WSJ's news department is fairly left of center; the editorials
are on the right. They actually do have a firewall between the
divisions, unusual in New York papers.
