I have to say, that article was really well written. I'd say it was... journalistic. She clarified (rightly) that the correlations the article made did not imply causation (that liberals are definitely less egalitarian) and made damned certain to include also a clarification that Conservatives may favor equal treatment over equal outcome. She was very careful not to show bias, and to even make the claim at the end that both sides might be right for different reasons. She even disclaimed that the article can't be taken to be evidence of which side is more right (which is so damned important). We are free to disagree with her reasons for the left favoring equal outcome, but a good journalistic article can't favor either side, and Miss Clark took great care not to do so. I personally applaud her for doing so.

The article is a breath of fresh air in today's world, unfortunately. It's about as neutral as it gets these days.
