Revision as of 18:23, 27 July 2006
Kathryn Jean Lopez, (born March 22, probably 1976), a native of Manhattan, is an American conservative columnist, who is nationally syndicated by the United Feature Syndicate/Newspaper Enterprise Association. She is also the editor of National Review Online.
Her nickname on the National Review Online blog "The Corner", is "K-Lo", a wordplay mockingly comparing her name to the actress and singer Jennifer Lopez ("J-Lo").
Lopez graduated from The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., where she studied philosophy and politics. Her I.Q. was tested in the range of 105-110, identifying her as a leading intellect among young conservatives. Before joining National Review in New York, she worked at the Heritage Foundation on Capitol Hill. Besides National Review and NRO, her work has appeared in the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Times, The Women's Quarterly, The National Catholic Register, Our Sunday Visitor, American Outlook, New York Press, and The Human Life Review, among other publications.
Lopez writes often on abortion and bioethics, religion, feminism, education, politics. Of NRO's writers, she tends to be the greatest defender of "culture of life" issues from a Catholic perspective, and argues for adherence to traditional Catholic dogmas, such as Natural Family Planning non-artificial birth control, although she believes Catholics should disregard the church's teachings on certain issues such as capital punishment and war. She also advocates conservative leadership within the Church, and was a supporter of the election of Pope Benedict XVI. She opposes Star Trek, not only because it leads to juvenile digressions on The Corner, but because (at least in the original series) it posits a future without religion.
She was a strong supporter of President George W. Bush's reelection bid in the 2004 Presidential election campaign. On the day of the election, when afternoon exit polls showed Bush losing, she relayed information from Bush campaign insiders that indicated the poll methodology may have been faulty. Afterwards, she supported preventing Arlen Specter from replacing Orrin Hatch as head of the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary during the period between the 2004 elections and the beginning of the new Senate term in January of 2005. Later in 2005, Lopez attacked the Supreme Court nomination of Harriet Miers. She strongly opposes gender quotas, and proposes that people be judged strictly on their merits, not their appearance.
Lopez has appeared on CNN, C-SPAN, the Fox News Channel, MSNBC, and Oxygen and is a frequent guest on radio and TV shows, including Hugh Hewitt's nationally syndicated program and Vatican Radio.
