pronunciamento

Hence, you get silly and smug pronunciamentos, such as Ohio State University’s that “there are no ‘two sides’ to racism.”

With votes at stake, with polls changing almost hourly, it is only natural that politicians and their close supporters provide a nearly endless stream of pronunciamentos rife with contradictions.

From these pronunciamentos, you might deduce that Steward was a little depressed.

"He would come on the set and make big pronunciamentos, and I would chuckle at him."

“My Struggle” all but announces that goal in its provocative title, which mocks the preening and pronunciamentos of many memoirists, not least the man who used the title first.
