Isn't This the Grossest Thing Ever?




I am so glad that I cancelled my membership with this magazine back in the '90s. Garrison Keillor was correct when he said,

"The New Yorker used to be a writers' magazine and it was very important to me. But under Tina Brown's editorship, it's been transformed into a magazine driven by gossip. It's not a writer's magazine any moreit's all about 'buzz' now."—GK

It was all over the news here. The New Yorker is getting burned badly.
