He lives my dream and he offers his adventures to the rest of us to make of it what we will. And he really, really is a good man. He tries to right the wrongs. There is only good in that.

1) Cocooning/groupthink ("Everyone thinks this way, because we do.")
2) Snobbery/elitism ("Everyone thinks this is interesting, or ought to.")
3) Conflicts of interest/logrolling (What was the Spy feature? "Logrolling in Our Time"?)
4) Failures of news judgment/professional skepticism (From Judith Miller all the way down to Jennifer 8. Lee.)
I guess Kristof's apparent edgelessness is intended for category #2, huh?

Seriously, he is awesome. He was one of my favorite columnists during the campaign season, and I love that he calls attention to global and women's issues. It is nice to see sex trafficking and other violence against women being given attention and taken seriously in the mainstream media. I wouldn't have even known about the phenomenon of throwing acid in women's faces in Pakistan if is wasn't for his heart-wrenching article.

Nick Kristof is not boring. But you know what is? Gossip Girl recaps. Seriously fuck you, Gawker.

But I'm a country boy, so it stands to reason that my favorite word would also be my favorite thing. But look at all these sophisticates around us!

My "fave" word of the day is fustigate.
As in, "I've been overcome by an intense desire to fustigate the crap out of Nick Kristof."

Also, I like how Charlie Rose asked Nick Kristof whether the Chinese believed themselves to be the "chosen people," and then Charlie Rose pauses for what seemed like an eternity before he said "people" recognizing the ambiguity of his word choice and trying to gauge whether anyone might take offense.
What a great interview.
