I can try... From Wikipdiea: Op-Ed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Op-ed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Op-ed "An op-ed, abbreviated from opposite the editorial page (though often mistaken for opinion-editorial), is a newspaper article that expresses the opinions of a named writer who is usually unaffiliated with the newspaper's editorial board. These are different from editorials, which are usually unsigned and written by editorial board members." Now onto Bill Keller: http://topics.nytimes.com/top/opinion/editorialsandoped/oped/columnists/billkeller/index.html http://topics.nytimes.com/top/opinion/editorialsandoped/oped... "Bill Keller is an Op-Ed columnist for The New York Times and writes for The New York Times Magazine. His column appears on alternate Mondays." Now look at NYTimes Editorials: http://topics.nytimes.com/top/opinion/editorialsandoped/editorials/index.html http://topics.nytimes.com/top/opinion/editorialsandoped/edit... These usually have no bylines, or attributable to one person. They don't deal with topics covered by Mr. Keller, the most recent one being titled "The House’s Less Persuasive Ban on Insider Trading". Essentially the Times has News, Opinion, Editorial. All of these are separate and the Editorial is the only one where the Times offers its "own" public opinions. Hope that helps.
