Deletion of Leslie Cockburn

Comment: A candidate article largely about her journalist career: https://www.thedailybeast.com/leslie-cockburn-is-the-only-candidate-whos-dined-with-mick-jagger-and-saddams-sons and multiple C-SPAN appearances as an author: https://www.c-span.org/person/?lesliecockburn I haven't gone deeper and a lot of the early before hits are about her campaign, but ignoring her candidacy it seems fairly clear she seems like she'd likely pass  for her journalism

Comment: While she definetly doesn't pass , the article has been up for over 10 years as a result of her journalism career.  and  should probably be what is looked at not just NPOL. I don't know enough about journalism to determine if the several awards she has won or her contributions are enough to pass. But her recent nomination for office shouldn't be the sole focus of the afD

Comment: I improved this article by improving the sourcing, adding some information, and trimming it down in places. Even if you ignore her candidacy,  says a person may be notable if "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times." A documentary she produced won an Emmy, and others have been nominated for Emmys.  says a journalist may be notable if "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work" or if their work "has won significant critical attention." I think both apply here because she's produced multiple investigative news documentaries that have received significant positive press in national newspapers over the course of years
