humor column
Comic newspaper feature
A humor column is a regularly appearing newspaper or magazine feature written to amuse rather than inform.
The columnist comments on everyday life, current events, or personal experiences with a comic touch.
Unlike news columns, the goal is entertainment: Dave Barry's humor column ran for decades in the Miami Herald.
