Third observation

Whoever gave the individual who writes and publishes an article the right to believe that he or she is "authorised" by public opinion to "enlighten" it, and even to "express" it and "represent" it? In spite of this, it is usually the case that editorials, whether the writer is known or not, always dare to claim that they express public opinion or at least their readers' opinion. This of course is not the case, no matter what the number of readers or listeners may be (the so-called "tirag"). For it is clear that reading something does not mean that one approves of it.
