    If you used to get Portfolio and you are deigned not to have a penis, you get Architectural Digest.

    I went from Men's Vogue to Portfolio to W (which was shockingly thin is that going under?) to the most recent card that indicates Vanity Fair is coming to my mail box next month.

    Considering that Foreign Policy got bought by the Washington Post recently, I suppose that if it tanks you all get a free subscription to... Slate.

    Smith's inability to get through to the right people at the NYT seems stunningly consistent over the decades. Maybe it's him?

    By golly, when ol' Neal Cassady was flipping that ball pean hammer around the Merry Pranksters in days of yore, he'd drop it sometimes, and it was heavy, because it meant something about the vibes and all in that garage.


    The NYT never reported, for instance, the ethnic makeup of the victims of the nazi holocaust. They dropped that story because the Sulzbergers were afraid it would sound like special pleading and thus annoy their racist customers.


    There was a reason the Grey Lady dropped the Watergate hammer ...

    We need to see pictures of these people so we can decide on the casting of the made-for-tv movie.

    Point of clarification: They were still behind the WaPo on the story by about two months-- that tip came 60 days after the actual break-in, which Woodstein were soon already on.


    Had the NYT followed through on this tip, it might have been a footrace to the end (especially with Sy Hersh on the case), but who knows...
