An editorial is an article that presents a group's opinion on an issue and because of this, it is usually unsigned. Just like a lawyer would, editorial writers build on an argument already made and try to persuade readers to agree with them on a current, burning issue. In essence, an editorial is an opinion piece with a side of news.[1]
