[edit] TRB column?

Kinsley became editor of The New Republic in 1979 and wrote that magazine's famous TRB column...

Apparently it's not that famous. I've never heard of it, I can't figure out what TRB stands for, and there's no WP article on it. What is it? --Tysto 21:38, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is Kinsley now a regular Time or Time.com columnist?

I just searched the Time website and found a bunch of columns--perhaps bi-weekly in 2008. I wonder if anyone knows his official relationship to Time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.86.248.1 (talk) 21:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] praise

Wow! its july 24th, and already there's an entry on a surgery two weeks before. This on a I venture saying low frequency article. This stuff is almost real-time encyclopeding!!!

You guys are great!! --213.54.166.204 00:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] POV deleted

This is a factual article about Kinsley, not a debate about his views. The pasting of someone else's (Chomsky's) POV doesn't make it any less POV. Furthermore, the person who inserted the POV describes Kinsley's "reporting". Kinsley is not a reporter, he is a columnist who writes opinion pieces.—J M Rice 20:33, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
