What search term leads to the list of the columnists instead of the columns of the day in a newspaper?

“Bylines” or reporters.

Editorial and op-ed contributors

newspaper title + “staff”, “writers”, “columnists”, and/or “employees”

Thanks, those only work for some newspapers.

There isn’t one universal search term that will work in all cases but playing around with the ones we suggested should get you some results. I wouldn’t bother using the term employees because that is too broad but the other terms should help.

I just ran my terms on the New York Times and got several lists of columnists.
