 * Delete. Journalists, writers and political commentators are not automatically notable just because they exist — but as written, "he exists" is literally all this article says at all, and it doesn't even try to make any claim as to why he might be notable. And the sources aren't helping to get him over WP:GNG either, as he isn't the subject of any of them — in all four, he's merely briefly namechecked as a giver of soundbite in an article whose core subject is something or somebody else, which is not how you support a person's notability. We're not looking for mentions of his name in coverage of other things, we're looking for coverage about him, and that's lacking. Bearcat (talk) 17:19, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
