Metaphor in Context
The traditional conservatism of the Tribune is undergoing a dramatic shift to what Maynard describes as a "open-minded" editorial policy not wedded to any particular ideology. "The philosophy for our editorial page I found in a church bulletin," he said. "The mind is like a parachute. It must be opened in order to work."
