The Houston Chronicle is hardly a conservative newspaper.

The Chronicle's credibility has been nosediving in Houston for the past 10 years, if not longer, at least amongst Conservatives, which your earlier comment seems to allude to.

The Chronicle's credibility has been nosediving in Houston for the past 10 years, if not longer, at least amongst Conservatives. That's my impression from reading a lot of the online comments, anyway.
That's my point, in the last decade it's become a left wing paper that's been on the verge of failure for a while. Houston isn't exactly a conservative town as it is but the paper caters to the left wing hipsters who move here and complain non-stop about how many oil field related rednecks live in the area while completely ignoring what built Houston.
