WHY AN EDITOR CALLS
HIMSELF “WE”
Reprinted from The
Nashville, (Ga.) Herald
Why does $n editor use
the word “We” in writing
an editorial?
The lowa Publisher re
cently reprinted the follow
ing explanation for the
“editorial we” which was
published in the Williams*
town Advocate over 100
years ago.
“A Country Editor—is
one who reads newspapers,
selects miscellany, writes
articles on all subjects, sets
type, reads proofs, folds
papers, and sometimes car
ries them, prints jobs, runs
on errands, cuts wood,
works in the garden, talks
to all his patrons who call
patiently, receives blame
for a thousand things that
never were and never can
be done, gets little done,
gets little money, has scar
ce time and materials to
satisfy his hunger, or to en
joy the diet of nature’s!
sweet restorer, sleep, and
esteems himself peculiarly
happy if he is not assaulted
and battered by some un
principled demagogue who
loves puppet shows and
hires the rabble with a
treat of cider brandy to :
vote him into some petty
office. A man who does all <
this and much more, not <
here recorded, you will'
know must be a rather busy i
animal; and as he performs (
the work of so many differ
ent persons, he may justly
be supposed their represen
tative, and to have an in
disputable right, when
speaking of himself, to use
the plural number, and to
say we on all occasions and
in all places.”
