The more interesting quote

On the editorial woes of Boston Magazine, not this:

Rosenbaum said Lipson frequently pushed him to be irreverent, “going after poor people, Democrats, the handicapped, minorities,’’ he said. “He’s to the right of Attila the Hun. At least he was. I haven’t spoken to him since the day he fired me.’’

But this:

Platt said he has a plan for reinvigorating Boston magazine: There are 250 influential people who compose any city’s power structure, he said, and the key is to write vivid stories about them.

That's a very interesting data point to people who like to organize bus tours, for example.

Political economy is far more interesting than politics....

"irreverent"!

How come when people are being "irreverent" and "transgressive" they always seem to be shitting all over the poor and powerless?

No, don't tell me, please....

The Democrats: a roach motel for progressive energies
