i don't think he was being an unhinged hack or anything like that. He didn't seem like he was too crazy.

I consider anything that's designed to directly appeal/have an emotional effect on a person as "Sensationalist". Whereas I'd consider the other side of the fence as "Informative"-- objective maybe? I mean, you can still have an emotional effect but it shouldn't be intended, because that is biased and purposeful. People get misled easily by their emotions-- not that I'm saying they are bad or anything. Sadly, what most people want is to follow their emotions, as they themselves are "Sensationalists".
He points that out in the article himself, I think. Like i said i thought it was a pretty decent writing.
