op-ed page
Columnists appear here
The op-ed page is the newspaper section featuring opinion columns and essays, positioned opposite the editorial page—hence "op-ed." While editorials represent the newspaper's official stance, op-ed pieces carry individual bylines and express the views of outside contributors or regular columnists: Her piece ran on the op-ed page of the Times.
