What is an Op-Ed?

An op-ed, short for “opposite the editorial page,” is a written piece typically published by newspapers or online media that expresses the opinions of a named author who is usually not affiliated with the publication’s editorial board. These articles provide a platform for individuals to share their perspectives on various topics, ranging from politics and social issues to culture and personal experiences. Op-eds are meant to provoke thought, spark discussion, and offer diverse viewpoints to the readership.
