Our opinion/editorial, or Op-Ed Page is reserved for opinion pieces written by a Gazette journalist or a group of journalists. The articles appearing here differ from most news pieces in that they advocate a particular point of view, policy or other non-objective opinion. They may contain assertions that are controversial or non-factual and they usually don’t seek to be as unbiased and objective as true newspaper stories should – and must.
Gazette editorials are found on this Op/Ed section of a website to make it especially clear that something is an opinion, rather than an objective news story.
Sometimes, an entire newspaper will collectively print and endorse an editorial written by a staff member or a few staff members. For example, conservatives tend to deride the New York Times because its editorials tend to espouse “liberal/progressive” points of view.
Conversely, progressives make similar claims about the Wall Street Journal However, the pure news content of both papers seeks to be objective. Other times, the Gazette will print editorial pieces written by a single individual who is credited with its authorship. In the latter case, the views of the author should not be construed to represent the views of the Gazette as a whole. Today, you can find editorials all over the Internet on various blogs and websites.

Social media is GREAT! When you post something, it is out there for the world to see. Mayor Mutz needs to stop lying and giving into BLM. Lakeland does not want this cancel culture CANCER infecting this city. If it is not stopped, it will come out to the suburbs which is their goal. I have heard too many people say, “I do not live in the city, so it does not affect me.” YES IT DOES….LAKELAND IS LAKELAND AND THEY WANT IT ALL!
