LOTTERIES
INSIDE
C OLUMNISTS are many things.
They are, of course, opinionated,
because they are paid to
provide their opinions.
They are headstrong, because they need to be to
write columns that matter and
columns that connect with
readers.
And as any editor will tell
you, they are frequently difficult
to deal with because they
are so damned opinionated
and headstrong.
But above all, columnists
are important to newspapers
because they bring personality
to our pages. They give
voice to views that need to be
heard. They know how to weave words to engage,
to enrage, to entertain.
With all this in mind, we debut today a new fulltime
columnist whose marching orders are to use
her gifts of language, style, curiosity, intelligence
- and, above all, opinion - to bring a new generational
perspective to the Free Press .
And here's why I am placing all that pressure on
Jen Zoratti.
A survey a year ago in J- Source , a publication of
the Canadian Journalism Project, found the country's
newspaper columnists were mostly male and
mostly middle- aged. According to that numbercrunching
of news and general- interest columnists
at Canada's 76 English- language dailies, the
median age was 58.5 - and only 27 per cent were
female.
A similar study in the United States of 143 columnists
representing big papers such as the New
York Times and Washington Post as well as the largest
press syndicates found a similar breakdown:
The median age hovered around 60 and there were
only 38 women in the mix.
" Why are newspaper opinion columnists so consistently
baffled by the politics, technologies, and
social mores of the 21st century?" is how Gawker
began the story about its findings on the lack of
diversity among U. S. columnists. " We've crunched
some data, and we think we've figured out the
answer: They're old as hell."
Jen is anything but old as hell. In fact, a birthdate
that makes her slightly younger than Katy
Perry had Jen thinking the roar of a columnist gig
was well beyond her reach and her experience.
" I never fancied myself a capital- C Columnist
- mostly due to the fact that it seemed like a job
for ' grown- ups' ( read: older gentleman) and, for
a long time, I suffered from crippling imposter
syndrome,'' Jen wrote in her application for this
columnist posting. " I mean, who the hell am I? But
when I began blogging in 2013 - and, eventually,
writing columns for the paper - I realized that
I did indeed have a voice and opinions ( outside of
whether or not the new Taylor Swift album is lifechanging
or not) that were worth committing to
ink, virtual and real."
Those of you who have been reading Jen's work
on our pages will know she has a voice and opinion
worth committing to ink, both virtual and real.
In addition to serving as our music critic, she's
tackled big- picture stories on everything from the
culture of rape to the rise of pet owners becoming
pet parents. She's demonstrated the ability to take
tough stands on our editorial pages and provided a
lighter touch when fronting videos for our website.
In other words, Jen has the write stuff to be what
a columnist needs to be today in terms of rewarding
those who read her in print and online or follow
her on social media.
I'll leave it up to Jen to formally introduce herself
to you in her first column on B1.
