News vs. analysis

The LA Times has an article covering the criticisms of a Bay Area program that teaches students about the disadvantages of abortion. Deep in the article, there is this paragraph:

There's no doubt that the majority of students and parents either like the program, remain neutral or find nothing objectionable. But First Resort has run into protesters before.

So the views presented are clearly a minority position. Shouldn't they be presented as opinions on the opinion page, rather than as news?
