Okay but does Postmedia publish a lot of MLI fellows or does the MLI just recruit their fellows from the opinion pages of Postmedia? Sort of the "it doesn't matter at all" chicken and egg situation

Fair question, but of all the the people I listed, only Jivani has a regular recurring column. The rest are being published on an irregular basis. I think it would be incredibly strange for them to have started out in a national newspaper as freelancers and then be recruited for a thinktank.

I think the more interesting thing to explore here is the interconnectivity between right wing special interest groups, their donors, large publications, and their roles within specific political movements

Absolutely. I was thinking that with think tanks you have varying levels of involvement from staff to "advisors" who are basically just on paper.

Looking forward to more content regardless!
