Would you say this coverage is at all driven by your opposition to the death penalty,

I think our coverage is devoted to exploring an issue that no one else is covering well. If you doubt our reporting, question it! You can't.

That's my point though - I don't "question" it! But I do think it's trying to advance a POV. Nothing inherently bad abt that.

I disagree. BuzzFeed's death penalty coverage is amazingly rigorous and objective. Remarkably bias-free.

It gives a decidedly louder voice to the abolitionist POV. It's more whom they interview / cover than outright bias.

Similar to pro-life reporters' heavier focus on negative PP stories or on activists' strategies for ending abortion.
