Sources are "Profiles" on various websites, an opinion blog for NYT, and a primary source. Doesn't seem to have have independent coverage, or a strong claim of notability other than a weak source for being nominated for a Peabody Award.

Keep: The article needs work, but her encounter at the White House has increased her notability, and the profiles make it clear that she's written for multiple top-tier outlets. --Pusillanimous (talk•contribs) 02:34, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete She has covered many stories but she herself is not a story. There is little notability of the author herself. Not every journalist becomes an entry in Wikipedia. Jason from nyc (talk) 16:18, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is the classic example of one event. Having one thing happen in their life that someone writes about and gets attention does not make them notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:19, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Her blog going viral on social media, which seems to be the main reason for the creation of this article, does not make her notable per WP:GNG.--Zananiri (talk) 12:10, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
