The Watchtower generally directly quotes official sources with regard to the definition of the trinity. Like all individuals, Jehovah's Witnesses reserve the right to voice their understanding of those official sources as they see fit.
There exists an abundance of documentation on the trinity. Those wishing to learn about it do well NOT to go to a strictly non-trinitarian source for an explanation. The Watchtower magazine's primary objective is to explain bible truths as they see it, those not agreeing with its conclusions as to their understanding are free to reject its conclusions and seek enlightenment elsewhere.
