Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
Oscar castrates himself The Academy celebrates niceness, bleeps out "bitch" and pats itself on the back for good behavior. And what did they do to poor Jon Stewart?
  • Can any clown become a pop culture critic?

    What a pathetic article! Did Cintra Wilson actually watch the show before writing the article or did she hack it out in 20 minutes on Friday afternoon and then take the weekend off? What was the point of all the cutsy fake awards and then not giving them to anybody? Oh, yeah to show how cool you are.

    It didn't work.

    There is nothing so tiring as the knee-jerk "it sucked" school of pop culture criticism. Poor Cintra had the bad luck to type her article after the American public had endured three weeks of similar scribbling after the Winter Olympics and it made her lame effort look even worse. Maybe if she sneaks her poor excuse for wit in at another time a few souls might enjoy it. But probably not.

    That article was not worth the time it took to click through the free ad. Salon, I want my money back!
