Not a riddle but if you can your help will be appreaciated, I tried all the obvious answeres.

"Two newspaper editors are arguing about how to arrange a layout.
They're happy with the photos they have, but the text itself needed spicing-up.
They were looking for a more in-depth analysis than the one they had written already.
One of them says to the other, You know, we should ask Jenkins. He's a proper _____, I bet he could give us some ideas."
