Bono to Write for N.Y. Times

U2 rocker Bono has been invited to write an Op-Ed page column for The New York Times, the newspaper announced.

“We have asked Bono to write an occasional column for the paper next year, covering a range of subjects, but are still finalizing the details,” Times spokeswomen Catherine Mathis said.

Kathy McKiernan, a spokeswoman for the ONE campaign — a charitable organization created by Bono — said if Bono is paid for his columns, he would give the money to charity.
