I do get some encouragement seeing things like this, or the students protesting who didn't back down even when their future careers were threatened.

The fact that they saw through the incredibly biased framing of the question especially.
"said they side with the terrorist group that just earlier this month purposefully targeted and slaughtered innocent civilians.". There's not even the hint of trying to be journalists anymore with them.

To be "fair" this is in the opinion section. Their opinion is bad and wrong though.

The "opinions" section is just so they can backpedal if they need to, if they actually held opinions that the staffers at the paper disagreed with, they wouldn't be allowed to put them there.

Intellectual integrity applies to everyone publishing shit for a general audience, even if journalistic integrity does not

Also, like, the paper is still publishing it
