Columnist

A columnist is a journalist who writes material on a regular basis for publication in a series. Columns appear in newspapers, magazines and other publications, including blogs on the Internet. Readers often open a publication with an expectation of reading a new essay by a specific writer who offers a personal point of view. Many columnists are strongly opinionated.
