Editorial not clear on who takes credit

Why does The Gazette feel inclined to share an editorial called “The Gazette's Editorial”? In the margin, there is an editorial board listed, but the article remains without an author taking credit for it and there is no reference that the editorial board is responsible. This daily post is not The Gazette's Editorial unless the article is reviewed and approved by all Gazette workers (is it?).

So please explain why the newspaper publishes this column and allows it to express an unauthored opinion and support political candidates?

If I worked for The Gazette, I would be offended at the misrepresentation of this article as the “Gazette's Editorial.”

Is there a reason newspaper management feels the need to express and impress its opinion in this biased fashion in lieu of just reporting news? I would think if management had a an opinion to share, they could use other avenues available and have the courage to take credit for that opinion in lieu of calling it the opinion of a non-living entity or misrepresenting the other Gazette employees.
