What is crusade editorial?

Answer 1

You may be referring to a "crusading" editorial. While newspapers are expected to be objective in reporting the news, there have been a number of newspaper editors who believed in a cause and promoted it through their newspaper's editorial page. Some editors took a stand about ending child labor, or ending segregation, or exposing government corruption, etc. On the editorial page, the opinion of the editor is often considered the official viewpoint of that newspaper. So a crusading editorial would be an editorial which forcefully advocates for a specific cause and demands some kind of action.

Answer 2

A crusade editorial is a written piece that passionately advocates for a particular cause or belief. It often uses strong language and persuasive techniques to rally support for a specific goal or to condemn a particular issue. These editorials are meant to inspire action and bring attention to important societal issues.
