@MichaelMcGough3 Linguistically, of course, the word Op-Ed was invented by the Times, I believe, in the 1970s to refer to the page OPPOSITE the Editorial Page. If there were no editorial pages, there would just be OP and no ED. — PolitiTweet.org

@laura_lrnzo I honestly don't think most Democrats would be shouting "racist" at a President Rubio. Some would, of course, but it would be probably just a vocal subset of the Democrats. — PolitiTweet.org

The Op-Ed page was created by the Times in 1970 to increase the diversity of opinion following the death of the Herald-Tribune. By going from one pages to two pages of opinion, they created the page opposite the editorial page. — PolitiTweet.org

@MrWalterShapiro @pattmlatimes @MichaelMcGough3 Really? I thought it was just a portmanteau of "opinions" and "editorials."
