As you may have read on this page a few months ago, the Durango Herald and The Cortez Journal have a new editorial page editor. This seems like a good time to re-acquaint our readership with the purpose of the Opinion page and what the editorial page editor does.
The editorial page editor is responsible for soliciting, selecting and editing letters to the editor, local guest columns and syndicated columns from regional and national sources to which the Herald and Journal subscribe. The editor is also responsible for writing most of the main editorials that appear on the Opinion page of the Herald and the Journal.
