    Must be a slow as molasses news day.

    Corbett dissed his own industry, and in the process punted any serious attempt at a column while he groused and at the same time sussed out a trend in contemporary editorializing, gussying up his own work in the process.

    He should just own it and go with the flow.

  2. Pissed in NYC:

    This from the “paper of record” that had Judith Miller writing fiction on page one and only started to use the term gay instead of “homosexual” in the fucking 1990s.

    They’re just now noticing this? What about the split infititives ad infinitum?

    It’s Strunk and White or hit the road, you know!

    “Was the New York Times so persnickety about grammar and word choice when they allowed Judith Miller to turn her column over to Donald Rumsfeld’s Pentagon to whore Iraq war propaganda? Just wondering.” — Christopher di Spirito
