I WILL NEVER WRITE ABOUT MAUREEN DOWD AGAIN: And I never have before. I have never finished one of her op eds in the NYT. I am glad for Times Select that they are now decently hidden from prying eyes. I never noticed her stuff during the 90s, when I suppose it was in tune with the zeitgeist. Now I am sure it is too late.
But there is, distantly, a moral point I wish to make. Consider this. How on earth does a serious newspaper, after 9/11, keep a person of such astonishing superficiality and witlessness on its payroll - and representing, God help us, the entire female sex?
Never mind. Won't raise the subject again.
