13. EDITORIALS
An editorial is an opinion piece written by the senior
editorial staff or publisher of
a newspaper or magazine. Editorials may be
supposed to reflect the opinion of the periodical.
Typically, a newspaper's editorial board evaluates
which issues are important for their readership to
know the newspaper's opinion.
Editorials are typically published on a special page
dedicated to them, called the editorial page, which
often also features letters to the editor from members
of the public; the page opposite this page is called
the op-ed page and frequently contains opinion pieces
by writers not directly affiliated with the publication.
However, a newspaper may choose to publish an
editorial on the front page.
14. Columnists
Palagummi Sainath (born 1957) is an Indian
journalist. He calls himself a 'rural reporter' or
simply a 'reporter',
and photojournalist focusing on social
problems, rural affairs, poverty and the
aftermaths of globalization in India. He is the
Rural Affairs Editor for The Hindu, and the
website India Together[1] has been archiving
some of his work in The Hindu daily for the
past six years.
15. P. Sainath’s famous opinions
On the drought and farmers' suicide in Western
Orissa
Over the last several decades, drought in western
Orissa, and Kalahandi in particular, has been
repeatedly in the news. Beyond the
sensationalism of news headlines and the reports
of distress and starvation, is the tragedy of a
population that has been consistently deprived of
its rights and entitlements. Be it long term
unemployment, drought and crop failure, or
displacement and chronic hunger, everything in
one of the poorest yet resource rich, districts in
India is a struggle.
16. On World Trade Organization (WTO)
and Capitalism vs Socialism
The WTO and GATT type of agreements are very
undemocratic. Corporate leaders make policy, not the
elected representatives. When people in Geneva draw
up regulations, some local panchayat leader cannot
be asked to address the consequences of those
decisions, when his/her input was not sought in
making the decision itself. The idea of different
systems is superficial, the most striking aspect of freemarket capitalism is that it has benefited the exact
same people who gained from socialism! It isn't
unexpected, either. After all, the South Commission
report[14] was signed by Manmohan Singh 90 days
before the liberalization process, can he really have
changed his views that much in that time? Political
opportunism and media management have provided
