  • Delete. As always, journalists are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to show some evidence that their notability has been externally validated by sources other than their own employers — coverage about them, analysis about their work, properly sourced evidence that they've won or been nominated for notable journalism awards, etc. But as usual for bad articles about journalists, this is written like somebody just tried to paraphrase his staff profiles on the self-published websites of his own employers, cites absolutely no third-party sourcing independent of said staff profiles, and claims absolutely nothing about him that would be "inherently" notable without WP:GNG-worthy coverage to support it.
