Everything about John Tierney Journalist totally explained

John Marion Tierney (born March 25 1953) is a journalist who has worked for the New York Times since 1990.
   Tierney writes a science column, Findings, and blog, TierneyLab for the Times. He was previously a columnist on the Op-Ed page (2005-6) and wrote a column about New York, The Big City, that ran in the New York Times Magazine and the Metro section from 1994 to 2002.
   Tierney became increasingly identified with libertarianism and identifies himself as a libertarian. He wrote columns critical of rent stabilization, the War on Drugs, Amtrak and compulsory recycling. His article on "Recycling Is Garbage" has the dubious distinction of breaking the New York Times Magazine's hate mail record.
   Tierney started his journalism career as an undergraduate at Yale University, where he was editor of the Yale Daily News magazine. He went on to work for newspapers (the Bergen Record and the Washington Star) and magazines (including Science 86, Health and Discover).
   He and novelist Christopher Buckley co-wrote the best-selling comic novel, God Is My Broker, a send-up of financial and spiritual self-help books (Random House, 1998). He also wrote The Best-Case Scenario Handbook, a parody of the popular Worst-Case Scenario Handbook series.
   Tierney dated another current New York Times columnist, Maureen Dowd, when they both worked at the Washington Star (External Link).
