Who reads the Editorials in the Sunday newspaper anymore?

Question

There's a few ways that I know of...
You start to read an an article on the front page of the Editorial section in the Sunday Newspaper that catches your interest and when you get to the bottom of the column it says, "Please see Blah blah blah, Page E2". As you unfold the news paper another headline for another article catches your eye.

Do you ...

A. open the newspaper, go to Page E2 and finish the first article you started reading, then go back to Page E1 and repeat for the other articles?
- or-
B. Read other articles on Page E1 to the bottom of their columns and then after you finished half of all the articles then go to page E2 and finish reading all the other halves?

There's probably a few other ways to read those opinions, any coments?

Answer 1

I always start with the editorial page. Love reading it. I use both a and b method, depends on how interesting the editorial is.

Answer 2

Let's get one point straight. Editorials are on the editorial page and have a point of view. News articles are in the news section of the paper. Don't confuse the two.

Usually I'll read all the articles on a page before jumping ahead and finishing the ones I'm interested in. But sometimes a story is too good for that, and I go to the jump immediately.

And I usually read the paper from front to back in order. I used to start with sports and lifestyles, but I go through it all in order now.

Answer 3

Newspapers are fading fast, soon to be dead.
Editorial and Op-Ed pieces are a joke. My opinion is just as good as anyone else's and I refuse to read one that I have to pay for.
If all of these enlightened editors, columnists, and freelancers know everything, why haven't they ran for office or joined a board of directors, or ran a company , or joined the marines, or given millions to charity, or quit driving a car, etc etc.
They are merely spewers of nonsense with a thesaurus and a wordprocessor. Nothing more, and much less.

Answer 4

I don't. The St. Louis Post Disgrace is so far left that they have no problem lying to make there point

Answer 5

I generally will read straight through, prepared to pick up the thread, unless it's unusually interesting to me.

Answer 6

I don't read them anymore. Not because of the reason you state, but because I just don't agree with their point of view. So, why should I just get frustrated?
