Abstract (The political manipulation through the main article of the newspaper): The main text of the newspaper –the editorial- is built on an apparent opposition between two different visions of reality, being unsigned and indicating the direction of the magazine or newspaper, or being signed and indicate the opinion of the author. If in the communist period, the biggest sin is to remove people isolated from the "masses", participating in joint actions, the editorialist feels able to draw attention to this danger named „the bourgeois ideology”, after 1989 the editorial is the key article of the newspaper. Our paper presents the critical theories in the fields of editorial and some mechanism of manipulation.
