44	Irvin	Arlington	m	Heffernan began her career as a fact checker with The New Yorker magazine. She served as a senior editor at Harper's and founding editor of Talk magazines, and as television critic for the online magazine Slate. In June 2002, the Columbia Journalism Review named Heffernan one of its "Ten Young Editors to Watch". In September of the following year, Heffernan departed Slate to join The New York Times. While there, she started the blog "Screens" for the New York Times website, which eventually became "The Medium" blog (named after her column). In February 2012, she became a national correspondent for Yahoo News, where she covered the 2012 presidential election and wrote about subjects related to media, technology, politics and culture. In June 2013, Heffernan began a series of articles for Yahoo News, entitled "Glass Menagerie", on her experiences using Google Glass OHMD. Heffernan is a regular contributor to The New York Times, as well as The Wall Street Journal, Wired, Mother Jones, Politico, and many other publications. In her journalism, Heffernan writes about culture and technology using methods of literary criticism. Her work often centers on the human side of technology, and culture in general, and she advocates broader and more critical thinking with regard to newer technologies. In parallel to writing on the subject, Heffernan also participates actively in social media. She openly befriends her readers on Facebook, tweets frequently and maintains an active Tumblr. In 2014 Ben Yagoda in the Chronicle of Higher Education named her among his top candidates for "best living writer of English prose". She was called "one of the mothers of the Internet". As of October 2018, Heffernan is the co-host of Slate's Trumpcast podcast. In it, she evaluates and critiques the presidency of Donald Trump, interviewing guests like Yascha Mounk, Fareed Zakaria, David Corn and more. Heffernan has contributed to a number of books, covering topics that include depression, TV series and the impact of the internet. In 2005, Heffernan (with co-writer Mike Albo) published the comic novel, The Underminer. The MTV documentary on the murder of Matthew Shepard, Matthew's Murder—for which Heffernan wrote the script—was nominated for an Emmy award. Heffernan has been online since the age of ten, when she used a Zenith computer terminal and dial-up modem at home to play a MUD at Dartmouth College. Her book about digital culture, Magic and Loss: The Internet As Art (Simon & Schuster) was published in June 2016. In this, Heffernan argued that the Internet is "the great masterpiece of civilization, a massive and collective work of art". The book was well-received, earning a starred Kirkus review, and showing up on summer reading lists, including those of Gwyneth Paltrow and Lenny Letter. Paltrow called Heffernan, "One of the writers I most admire", The New York Review of Books called it "an ecstatic narrative of submission", and The Wall Street Journal described it as "An illuminating guide to the internet". Writing in The New Yorker, Louis Menand wrote that "Heffernan is smart, her writing has flair, she can refer intelligently to Barthes, Derrida, and Benjamin—also to Aquinas, Dante, and Proust—and she knows a lot about the Internet and its history. She is good company." In July 2013, Heffernan published an article entitled "Why I'm a creationist", saying she was "considerably less amused and moved by the character-free Big Bang story ("something exploded") than by the twisted and picturesque misadventures of Eve and Adam". She concluded by quoting author Yann Martel's summation of his novel, Life of Pi: "1) Life is a story, 2) You can choose your story, 3) A story with God is the better story". In a subsequent discussion on Twitter with the popular science writer Carl Zimmer, Heffernan clarified her stance — "I'm a creationist on aesthetic grounds". Heffernan received much criticism for her column. Critics responded to her postmodern stance, several quoting Daniel Patrick Moynihan: "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts". However, writing in The Guardian, Andrew Brown dismissed Heffernan's critique of evolution, but noted that: "he is certainly not a young-earth creationist ... ut she wants stories where people find hope and courage in the events of the world around them, and she finds them in religion, not in science".	Heffernan lives in Brooklyn Heights with her two children.	arlington began his career as a fact checker with the new yorker magazine. he served as a senior editor at harper's and founding editor of talk magazines, and as television critic for the online magazine slate. in june 2002, the columbia journalism review named arlington one of its "ten young editors to watch". in september of the following year, arlington departed slate to join the new york times. while there, he started the blog "screens" for the new york times website, which eventually became "the medium" blog (named after his column). in february 2012, he became a national correspondent for yahoo news, where he covered the 2012 presidential election and wrote about subjects related to media, technology, politics and culture. in june 2013, arlington began a series of articles for yahoo news, entitled "glass menagerie", on his experiences using google glass ohmd. arlington is a regular contributor to the new york times, as well as the wall street journal, wired, mother jones, politico, and many other publications. in his journalism, arlington writes about culture and technology using methods of literary criticism. his work often centers on the human side of technology, and culture in general, and he advocates broader and more critical thinking with regard to newer technologies. in parallel to writing on the subject, arlington also participates actively in social media. he openly befriends his readers on facebook, tweets frequently and maintains an active tumblr. in 2014 ben yagoda in the chronicle of higher education named his among his top candidates for "best living writer of english prose". he was called "one of the mothers of the internet". as of october 2018, arlington is the co-host of slate's trumpcast podcast. in it, he evaluates and critiques the presidency of donald trump, interviewing guests like yascha mounk, fareed zakaria, david corn and more. arlington has contributed to a number of books, covering topics that include depression, tv series and the impact of the internet. in 2005, arlington (with co-writer mike albo) published the comic novel, the underminer. the mtv documentary on the murder of matthew shepard, matthew's murder—for which arlington wrote the script—was nominated for an emmy award. arlington has been online since the age of ten, when he used a zenith computer terminal and dial-up modem at home to play a mud at dartmouth college. his book about digital culture, magic and loss: the internet as art (simon & schuster) was published in june 2016. in this, arlington argued that the internet is "the great masterpiece of civilization, a massive and collective work of art". the book was well-received, earning a starred kirkus review, and showing up on summer reading lists, including those of gwyneth paltrow and lenny letter. paltrow called arlington, "one of the writers i most admire", the new york review of books called it "an ecstatic narrative of submission", and the wall street journal described it as "an illuminating guide to the internet". writing in the new yorker, louis menand wrote that "arlington is smart, his writing has flair, he can refer intelligently to barthes, derrida, and benjamin—also to aquinas, dante, and proust—and he knows a lot about the internet and its history. he is good company." in july 2013, arlington published an article entitled "why i'm a creationist", saying he was "considerably less amused and moved by the character-free big bang story ("something exploded") than by the twisted and picturesque misadventures of eve and adam". he concluded by quoting author yann martel's summation of his novel, life of pi: "1) life is a story, 2) you can choose your story, 3) a story with god is the better story". in a subsequent discussion on twitter with the popular science writer carl zimmer, arlington clarified his stance — "i'm a creationist on aesthetic grounds". arlington received much criticism for his column. critics responded to his postmodern stance, several quoting daniel patrick moynihan: "everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts". however, writing in the guardian, andrew brown dismissed arlington's critique of evolution, but noted that: "he is certainly not a young-earth creationist ... ut he wants stories where people find hope and courage in the events of the world around them, and he finds them in religion, not in science".arlington lives in brooklyn heights with his two children.
