Quoting the article about the newspaper's Op-Ed piece:
"For the first time, a Japanese newspaper has denounced the slaughter of dolphins in the cove at Taiji, a move that has heartened activists and put the Japanese government on notice that the tides may be changing within the country.
"On Friday, The Japan Times, the country’s oldest and largest English-language newspaper, ran an editorial that stated, simply, 'The dolphin hunt is an inhumane practice that should be stopped.' "
