My name is Charlie Stadtlander, I  work in the New York Times Communications department and am writing to suggest one edit to this entry.  
The third paragraph of Gail Collins' biographical section mistakenly labels Ms. Collins as being the subject of criticism by Joan Didion and others for pandering to "racial estrangement" during the 1990 "Central Park Jogger" court trial. I'd recommend removal of this sentence from the article, since the cited essay from Ms. Didion actually agrees with Ms. Collins' criticism of unproven claims that were themselves racially divisive, as well as the attorney who engendered this racial provocation.  Neither Ms. Collins' original NY Daily News column from Sept. 12, 1990 nor Ms. Didion's characterization of them indicate that Collins herself was expressing racial judgment or stoking unrest, but rather criticizing those that did. Inclusion of this sentiment in her biography is inaccurate, and not reflective of her history as a columnist.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by CharlieStadtlander (talk • contribs) 17:40, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for identifying yourself as you make this request, Charlie Stadtlander, so that we are aware of the possibility of a conflict of interest. Having reviewed this, my own view is that although Didion was somewhat critical of Collins' approach, it was a brief parenthetical mention in her piece, and it appears not to have led to any coverage in third-party sources – I've searched and have come up empty. As such, I believe it is WP:UNDUE and will remove it. I'm happy, of course, to hear any dissenting opinions. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 00:29, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
