An '''editorial''' is content in a media publication expressing the opinion of its editors or publishers. Editorials are traditionally found in newspapers and magazines, but can be presented in other media like radio, television and websites.
The editorial section of news publications are clearly distinguished from the "hard news" sections to avoid opinion being represented as news, and vice-versa.
Editorials submitted for publication by readers are generally published under an Opinion-Editorial, or ''Op-Ed'' heading to distinguish them from the editorials of the publisher.
