I think that “Ms.” bit is part of the Times’s regular style manual.

I'm sure it is, and it ticks me off. It's politically correct leftist crap. In leftspeak, a woman is not "defined" by whether or not she is married, so the title cannot refer to her marital status.

Kind of like how they use BCE instead of BC: liberals trying to expunge Christ from history.

Yep, it’s standard NYT “etiquette” to always refer to women as Ms.
