Given that this is a particular columnist, you may want to make the Master Source his column rather than the Newspaper as a whole and each article is the source detail. You may find other gold in the same newspaper and want to be able easily to get a list of what came from this particular historian and what was in other articles.
Certainly you shouldn't be putting newspaper article text in a Master Source. To make a Master Source of everything is to misunderstand the sourcing system.
