A recent comment on a column by Michelle Grattan in The Age:

You have to love these pontificating journalists standing atop the mountain espousing their views in their papal robes as if what they say is coming straight out of the bible,
Nothing but self appointed experts who have reached a stage where they are no longer interested in reporting information , rather they prefer to deliver us THEIR OPINION, well i have to say as far as opinion goes I would rather read the various posts which provide a much deeper analysis of what the facts really are , ( apart from a couple of the boofheads) at least the forum provides some discussion and different points of view , which are argued back and forth in a democratic form , i suggest we do away with the journalist and instead just provide one topic preferably policy based for posters to debate. – stevec

Sounds like stevec is looking for something like YourView!
