The New York City medical examiner’s office said it will look into the death of New York Times media critic David Carr, who collapsed in the office Thursday night.

He wrote about media for the last 25 years. “He combined formidable talent as a reporter with acute judgment to become an indispensable guide to modern media,” said Times Publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr.
