newspaper columnist
Regular editorial contributor
A newspaper columnist is a writer who produces a regular feature for a newspaper, typically expressing personal opinion or commentary rather than straight news reporting.
Columnists often develop distinctive voices and loyal readerships: She's been a columnist for the Times for twenty years.
The column usually appears on a fixed schedule and covers a particular beat—politics, sports, lifestyle, or local affairs.
