WSJ published an Islamophobic article after Arab-American leaders refused to meet with Biden.

Arab-Americans were upset with Biden, and rightly so, and instead of Democrats and Liberals considering changing their atittude, they went full Islamophobe.

after this? I mean Biden blindly sides with Israel, where many Arab-Americans have ties with those in Gaza, where there is a genocide, or what similar to genocide is happening. And after expressing their anger and dissatisfaction they came up with this.

 
Surprise the piece belongs to the director of MEMRI an Israeli islamophobe institute.

They should be forced to retract it. This proves that journalism isn't a real. If someone that biased is allowed to run to what is supposed to be a "real" news establishment and push their rhetoric on there, then there are no journalistic standards. Crazy that with all those billions Muslims have, the only media they control is Al-Jazeera and that's not even western media. Elon Musk took money from Saudis to buy Twitter and yet Islamophobia is prevalent on there, but the Jews made him do an apology tour for antisemitism. What are we even doing?
 
WSJ isn't liberal. It's conservative and is owned by the same company that owns Fox News
It is liberal in the sense that it is secular. Its conservative leanings do not mean affinity for traditional Muslims over Liberals. Those people would pick Liberals over Muslims because they draw from the same Western ideologies. Right-wing does not mean you are traditional or that you really try to conserve, more about that you're trying to gate-keep and hold power to define the lines, of who and what is within and outside the lines in the context of these guys' vis a vis their country endeavors.

If you’re referring to classical liberalism, then yea it’s liberal in that sense. But that wouldn’t be a useful distinction because every media outlet is liberal since this is the belief that underpins the modern western world

WSJ is an outlet supporting western conservatism. In the west, religion isn’t a necessary component of being a conservative. You can be both secular and a conservative. What’s considered to be “Conservative” is subjective and can vary based on each society

Although we would have a lot to speak on since this is a broad topic, I'm not going into that at this moment since it would require several paragraphs of political science synthesis related to media coverage with ideological clusters of Wester civil religion, generally, things I'm not in the mood to get into, in-depth, since you're throwing broad things that require more response than a sentence or two.

There is a reason I responded by clarifying for people that American conservatives are liberal with a small L and not Liberal. This is a very important emphasis for reasons you probably understand.

And by the way, parent companies can own news organizations that have both left and right-leaning dispositions. For example, over a decade ago, Fox bought considerable shares in Vice, a leftist, then independent media outlet, despite Rupert Murdoch being a notorious Right-wing guy.

This is true, but it’s important distinguish between the WSJ news articles vs the editorials which was what op posted. The editorials have a history of promoting right wing conservatives, while the regular news articles are just your standard pro business neo-liberal talking points

I didn’t quote the rest of your comment because I agreed

It could be that @Aurelian spoke without the context we're discussing, referencing Liberals like Biden instead of the news agency. In the way that these Liberals are known to take "conservative" social positions of the xenophobic kind when it comes to Muslims, which happens. I have heard far-left Liberals talk like far-right when it comes to Muslims, pushing ignorant tropes of barbarism.
