Eric Berger (meteorologist)Eric Berger (journalist) – Seems to be primarily known as a journalist, writing articles for the Houston Chronicle and Ars Technica, not for a meteorologist career. The page history shows several moves back and forth from this title, so opening an RM for a full discussion. Natg 19 (talk) 17:35, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support — His social media reflects his primary career as a journalist. His communication regarding meteorology arguably still falls into the journalism bucket. Penitentes (talk) 21:14, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support — Berger's work and coverage of him is largely about his editorial/writing work, and not for weather prediction (though he often writes about the weather). –TheAustinMan(TalkEdits) 03:56, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support—Berger's role as a space journalist at Houston Chronicle and ARS Technica is clearly his most well-known occupation, with vastly more sources covering that then his earlier meterological career. N2e (talk) 17:00, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support: I will now concede that his work with Space City Weather can be classified as journalism, so journalist would be a more precise parenthetical.  Bait30  Talk 2 me pls? 22:24, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
