WP:BLP of a journalist, not properly referenced as having a strong claim to passing inclusion criteria for journalists. As always, journalists are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to show markers of significance such as noteworthy journalism awards, coverage and analysis about the significance of their work in sources other than their own employers, and on and so forth -- but this, as written, is of the "journalist who exists" variety, and is referenced entirely to primary source staff profiles and unreliable "career, marriage, education & net worth" sources that aren't support for notability, with absolutely no WP:GNG-worthy sourcing shown at all.

- Delete: Clearly fails WP:GNG and speaking from a reliability viewpoint, the sources used are utterly unreliable. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 22:57, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
