I'm always happy to realize Caitlin Flanagan has written anything, she could write the ingredients to a cereal box and make it one of my most interesting reads for the day. That she wrote of Bari Weis (the Free Press is one of three subscriptions I pay) is a double gift. I first noticed Bari when she wrote that resignation letter to the NYT, I've been a fanboy ever since. Both Bari and Caitlin write in that slightly humorous voice that says, "this is my take on this thing but I don't take myself too seriously, certainly not so much that I can't laugh about it at the same time".
Somehow I seem to have left off TV news sometime before Walter Cronkite did, I'll have to find a way to take a peek without actually owning a TV.
