I found that aside from the size, my editorial was structurally similar to the professional article. He used similar constructions - and with the dramatic size difference considered, the statistics are also similar. A major difference that I did notice is the more obvious voice found in the professional editorial. He used a stronger and more abrasive voice.

That is really good that your style is so similar to the professional. I cannot say the same thing about my editorial!
I have also noticed that professionals tend to be more powerful with the statements they make. I struggle with that because I am nervous that my ideas will not be strong enough to support my argument.
Nicole is right, about the fear of it not being strong enough. However, we need to realize that the professionals have been doing this for a very long time, I'm sure that they were scared in their freshman English class.
