In the past weeks, the TC Campus News has received several complaints about our policy of “unsigned” editorials.
The lack of signature on editorials is not an oversight. It is intended.
Behind the editorial page of the Texarkana Gazette, the Dallas Morning News, or the Shreveport Journal, editorials in these papers are not signed. Though all features are signed, these should definitely not be confused with editorials.
Our policy states that if the editor agrees with the views expressed in an article written by a member of the staff, that article is printed as an editorial—unsigned. But if the editor does not agree, the article is signed or printed in column form with a by-line.
Consequently, any signed or by-lined article is the opinion of only one person.
