However, here I wish to register an objection to the very recent unseemly, inexplicable collapse of the historic editorial and op-ed pages that are arguably the most significant two pages in all of our country’s mainstream journalism. The implosion of these pages started some months ago when I noticed that op-eds were displacing the previously sacrosanct space for the daily editorials. From the usual three editorials taking up the left half of the page , emerged op-eds such as the tepid exchanges between professed “liberal” Gail Collins and “conservative” hawk Bret Stephens .

The entire editorial page was recently an artistic portrayal of the headline “The Choices My Mother Could, and Couldn’t, Make.” . And just this August 3, 2022, another full-page article titled “Liz Cheney is Prepared to Lose Power, and It Shows” replaced editorials with a gigantic picture of the legislator’s face.
