The editorial board at The Wall Street Journal writes opinion articles in The Wall Street Journal and selects opinion articles by outside parties for publication. The editorial board is known for its very conservative positions, which at times bring it into conflict with the Journal's news division.
The Journal is regarded as a forum for climate change deniers, publishing articles by people who reject the consensus position on climate change in its op-ed section. A 2011 study found that the Journal was alone among major U.S. print news media in adopting a false balance that overplays the uncertainty in climate science or denies anthropogenic climate change altogether.
