mong much else – reporter, humorist, analyst, a Yoda for the Upper West Side – the New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman considers himself a phrase maker. One of his most famous coinages, “The World Is Flat,” not only describes his prose
style but also his vision of the digitized society, and of course it became the title of his runaway 2005 bestseller. So maybe we shouldn’t be surprised that it is to Friedman that we can trace the phrase “The Green New Deal.”
