Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the development of the editorial column, focusing on how it has transformed from being a vehicle for news analysis to a crucial influencer of public opinion in the decades since the end of World War 1. The author discusses the rise of the "golden age of the editorial" in the 19th century with the emergence of journalistic giants such as Greeley and Dana, who wielded unparalleled influence through their incisive and often personalized editorials. However, the rise of yellow journalism at the end of the century, with its focus on sensationalism and lurid stories, led to a decline in the influence of the editorial page. In the present day, editorials are often tasked with fulfilling diverse functions, ranging from moralizing and educating the public to highlighting ethical dilemmas, and occasionally providing entertainment. The author argues that while the editorial page may not carry the same weight it once did, it remains an essential element of a well-rounded and vibrant press, and can have a significant impact on shaping public discourse and fostering critical thinking. The author provides a rich historical context for understanding the evolution of the editorial and its enduring importance.
