"I can’t think of a race that was quite as unmoored as this one from the actual details of governance." kang Rare to read this kind of commonsense critique these days, esp in the current version of The The New Yorker .

Here's a 1987 Fresh Air review I did of 2 late-period Peckinpahs. In it, I mention that now you can be yr own film critic, given this new "videocassette" thing that was sweepin' the nation. (Also, my voice was like an octave higher than it is now.) freshairarchives.org/segments/films…

There were few shows I championed harder at Entertainment Weekly than Freaks and Geeks. Folks seem to be celebrating its 25th anniversary, so here's my first 1999 rave: ew.com/article/1999/1…

These chuckleheads in the FOX Sports: MLB booth constant cackling & guffawing shd be punished by having Bob Costas Greatest Hits pumped into their headphones for the rest of the Phillies Mets game.

So Mark Landler sez Boris "makes a case" for Trump but The New York Times takes care that its readers are not exposed to it--just a list of "issues" Johnson talked about re Trump, but no quotes. I loathe Trump but I'd like to hear how the case cd be made. nytimes.com/2024/10/12/boo…
