I don't think that they are free from the same issues of everyone else if you are asking. I would imagine that they do reject papers based on peer review, and their lack of scientific rigor . They may also reject articles that don't fit with the purpose and intent of that journal. But I would think that the question would require some example of a practice or principle in question in order to answer. I'm not familiar with their specific practices or what you seem to be pointing to.
edit: As I've alluded, I'm more interested in the discussion of a particular argument for and against a specific article or conclusion. And even then, I'm looking at the data and while I take into consideration the reasons and conclusions of the paper, I can form my own informed opinion. I also look at the reasons against. I don't have any issues with the discovery institute by and large.
