Jesse Singal is a contributing writer to New York Magazine.

Singal is best known for his critiques of social science methodologies such as the Implicit-association test,[2] and of the use of evidence in ethnography.[3]

In his 2017 book Interrogating Ethnography: Why Evidence Matters, law school professor Steven Lubet discusses Singal's 2015 article "The Internet Accused Alice Goffman of Faking Details in Her Study of a Black Neighborhood. I Went to Philadelphia to Check," in which Singal fact-checked Goffman's 2014 book On the Run.[4] When the Goffman book, which followed accepted ethnographic practice by concealing the identity of it subjects, became controversial, Singal was able to discover the identities of the book's subjects and went to Philadephia to interview them.[3]

According to columnist Cathy Young, Singal wrote a notable article about the "witch hunt" targeting psychologist and founder of Toronto's Child Youth and Family Gender Identity Clinic, Kenneth Zucker.[5]
