Via Pharyngula, here is a recently stated editorial policy from a long-established publication:

As politics go, we’re surprised so many readers expect us or any publication to provide “balance,” which reflects a belief in the fallacy that there are two equally valid sides to every story. You see this in the debate over global warming and evolution. Thousands of scientists stand on one side of the issue, recognizing that global warming is a problem and that evolution is firmly established, while only a few detractors stand on the other.

Now, that’s integrity, intelligence, and editorial virtue for you: acknowledge the facts, not the politics. So, where did this paragon of reasoned discernment come from? Who is responsible for having the courage to present a reality-based policy for presenting the fact? Was it the New York Times? The Washington Post? The Wall Street Journal? Nope. It was Playboy.

There is no link provided, so I can’t verify this–but in today’s world of journalism, somehow this would not at all surprise me.
