'Newspicks' question.

Just got an invite on FB for this site.
They say that it will be unbiased, true news.
Not sure.
They seem to want to pick two or more hot people of the day to give opinions on what is going on.
I am queasy about believing that since it sponsored by the Dow and the WSJ.

Any comments?
