    That’s all fine and well, but this is a contributing writer. She’s not even an employee of the NYT.

      That would only matter to the IRS. Or someone really really into the details of journalism. If you are one of those seven people, kudos.

        The NYT regularly publishes opinion columns from wildly different perspectives. Only a week ago Matthew Walter, who could arguably be described as a conservative Christian nationalist, wrote a contributing opinion column discouraging people from voting.

        It doesn’t “only matter to the IRS.” Not understanding what an opinion column and a contributing writer are and how they function within a news organization is simply media illiteracy.

        Kudos.
