editorials

Newspaper position statements

Editorials are opinion pieces published by newspapers, magazines, or other media outlets, typically expressing the publication's official stance on an issue rather than an individual writer's view.

The editorial board weighs in on politics, policy, or current events: The paper's editorials have endorsed Democratic candidates for decades.

Editorial as an adjective describes anything relating to the editing or content side of publishing, as opposed to advertising or business operations.
