The ramblings of noted loon Peter Thiel that happened to be published in the WSJ do not == the WSJ.
This is a recurring issue on the forum (thinking that opinion pieces in a newspaper represent the paper's actual position).
They decided to publish it. Nobody forced them. They could decline.
If that logic is used to justify that every editorial published represents that paper's view then countless (if not every) paper has contradictory views on some issue. Also if we extend the same logic to letters to the editor that are published...
