The Frontier Post - Editorial Position

Editorial Position

The editorial staff, which is predominantly from the Afridi tribe, has been supportive of the Jirga system of government, referring to it as "one of the most time-honoured institutions in the tribal world".

In January 2010, the paper issued an editorial harshly criticising the sudden demonisation of the Pakistani government, after the US-backed dictator Pervez Musharraf was removed, and Western accusations that the new government was sponsoring militants in Afghanistan.

Famous quotes containing the words editorial and/or position:

    I have been in the editorial business going on fourteen years, and it is the first time I ever heard of a man’s having to know anything in order to edit a newspaper.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Einstein is loved because he is gentle, respected because he is wise. Relativity being not for most of us, we elevate its author to a position somewhere between Edison, who gave us a tangible gleam, and God, who gave us the difficult dark and the hope of penetrating it.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
