NY Times Adding 20 Online Op-Ed Writers
Posted in: UncategorizedThe New York Times is tired of people poking fun at its homogenous and insipid op-ed section, so it’s boosting it by 20. Online, at least. The Times has added 20 new op-ed writers, who will contribute regularly to the Times’ online Opinion Pages.
Notable additions to the op-ed section include Sandeep Jauhar, Roxane Gay, Jennifer Weiner, Mimi Swartz and Héctor Tobar.
These writers (and the others) are guaranteed to breathe fresh air into the Times’ stagnant op-ed section. That means, suddenly, we might actually be interested in reading it. Mission accomplished, Times editorial page editor Andrew Rosenthal.
Below are the rest of the new additions.
- William Baude
- Brittany Bronson
- Michael Eric Dyson
- Richard A. Friedman
- Adam Grant
- David L. Kirp
- Lydia Millet
- Judith Shulevitz
- Megan Stielstra
- Manil Suri
- Zeynep Tufekci
- Peter Wehner
- Freddie Wilkinson
- Molly Worthen
