Always beware one of the most dishonest offerings of the mainstream media - the "news analysis." Theoretically this is when a journalist goes more in-depth than usual by explaining the background of an issue - going through its causes and effects and helping you better grasp the drivers behind the mere facts. That is what it's supposed to be. That is not what it usually is.
Usually, it's an opportunity for a liberal reporter who write his opinion under the guise of "analysis," not labeling the piece as opinion so as to give it a certain cachet of trustworthiness. This isn't just this guy's opinion, you're supposed to think. He's a journalist! He's just helping us understand the facts.
