I said the article is a sensationalised opinion piece. Opinion is the operative word here. Now see if you can make sense of what I said.

Why is it a sensationalised opinion piece? because the article was written not to report on the news but to give us his opinion yet written like a news item.

like as if I wrote an article saying Prices plummet in the low lying suburb as people flee to higher ground. Instead of saying Fear of climate change is causing people who live in low lying areas to be concerned about the value of their real estate.

Did you see the photos of the happy couple, btw? looked like they rather enjoyed themselves all in all.
