He's described as a newspaper columnist, which may well be notable enough on
its own.
I know the particular newspaper is thought of badly in many circles, but
that doesn't mean that it and its staff aren't notable.

Yes, there was a BLP vio. I don't see it as needing oversight - though
it
was by a relative, it was basic vandalism.
The article he wrote on the incident seems balanced, in a critical way.
I
prefer well researched honest critics any day.

One of the big crackdowns on BLPs was surely "notability by association" -
ok the guys dad was famous but is he? the fact that his kids think he is
and
a few misguided editors (catholic, smoker wt??) do, doesn't mean that I
think that a few paragraphs in a newspaper make him notable.
