Journalism is the production and distribution of reports on the interaction of events, facts, ideas, and people that are the "news of the day" and that informs society to at least some degree.

The Herald is a source of public information and the article linked seemed to convey some politically based IDEAS which IMO loosely falls under the heading of journalism. My pointed difficulty has to do with:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journalism#Ethics_and_standards
"While various existing codes have some differences, most share common elements including the principles of – truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, fairness and public accountability – as these apply to the acquisition of newsworthy information and its subsequent dissemination to the public."
