:It is not an rs issue, it belongs at NPOVN. It is not clear btw whether the story is a news article or an editorial, since it is by Robert Stacy McCain who wrote both op-eds and news articles for the [[Sun Myung Moon]] newspaper. Oddly, some of his work included, according to the SPLC, sympathetic coverage of the neo-confederate [[League of the South]], to which he once belonged.[http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-files/groups/league-of-the-south] [[User:The Four Deuces|TFD]] ([[User talk:The Four Deuces|talk]]) 01:46, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
::The material is actually from an interview. Thus interviews are generally considered usable -- the person quoted in the interview has an opinion, thus such opinions are citable as opinions. The issue is not about whether the source is an "editorial column" at all. Is the interview usable? Or is it attaint because it is written by a person who worked for the dreaded Moonies? Cheers.
