Actually, Krugman is a columnist, not an editorial writer. Both are
journalists. The first two offer opinions, hopefully based on facts, but
they're just as much journalists as any reporter or editor or photographer,
etc. Your correspondent is correct that Krugman's column is not a standard
news article, though it would take a fairly obtuse reader not to realize
this with a piece that includes "I warned" and "I'm sorry to say" in the
first sentence.
