NATIONAL COLUMNISTS’ DAY – April 18

Columnists have the ability to elicit a slew of emotions that often result in action. It is their intention, which many may not know. If their readers are not moved by their column, they haven't done their jobs.

Some columnists lighten the mood or play a part, with their own brand of humor or satire. Some people have a different viewpoint, hard facts, and solid evidence. Any columnist's hard work connects them to the world, regardless of their style or approach.

At several a breakfast table, well-known columnists have undoubtedly sparked ire and laughter. When commenting on today's gossip, they poke fun and holes at political figures. They may also post a little bit of gossip depending on their field of expertise. Readers were entertained by Walter Winchell, Molly Ivins, Mauly Ivins, Mauly Ivins, Mauly Safire, Dave Barry, and Ernie Pyle's wit and wisdom as they addressed fashion, movies, politics, sports, education, finance, sports, education, or family affairs. Columnists fuel debate and encourage us to consider our positions.
