News stories focus on facts, and seek to present all sides of an issue. Opinion articles, which mostly run in the opinion pages at the back of the Nation & World section, focus on the writer’s beliefs and interpretations. The Bee’s news and opinion pages are run separately, to prevent conflicts of interest. Executive Editor Betsy Lumbye oversees the news department. Editorial Page Editor Jim Boren oversees the opinion department. Both report to Publisher and President Will Fleet.
