Minty, most dailies have an editorial page and an op-ed page. The editorial page is generally on the left page if you are reading the paper as a spread. That page has editorials written by the paper's editorial board and representing the paper's institutional point of view. It also usually includes letters to the editor from readers of the paper, either reacting to stories published in the paper or bringing up a subject of interest to the paper's readers. The op-ed page can contain all sorts of opinions. It does not represent the paper's point of view. The editorial board, by the way, is separate from the reporting and news staff.
The Heartland Institute is somewhere to the right of Rush Limbaugh, and is one of the last "think tanks" to deny the existence of global warming. I think the Heartland Institute admitted the earth was round when NASA published the pictures from the Gemini program.
