Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
Tracy Clark-Flory discusses France's decision to punish pro-anorexia Web sites.
  • You just aren't going to stop, are you?

    The pointless, inane, reading-at-you videos are a permanent feature, aren't they?

    Why?

    Why do you insist upon this? Why do you fail to see that this is much worse than no video at all? Do you even care? Is there some income stream that you are attached to, despite the disservice it creates for your readers?

    Seriously, why?

    I really should abandon this web site. Joan Walsh is very proud of the way she has dragged it down from what it once was. That does not bode well for its future.

    But leaving this site and never returning would mean giving up on King Kaufman. The other content I would really miss; This Modern World, The K Chronicles, Tom the Dancing Bug, and a few other things, are available elsewhere, although I would have to wait a little longer for some of them.

    But I haven't been able to find King Kaufman anywhere else. And I would really miss him.

    It is no coincidence that his videos are the only Salon-writer videos that are not detrimental to the writer's message. Maybe he will leave soon.

    P.S. I don't know if Tracy Clark-Flory had anything worthwhile to say, because her high-school-level presentation skills preclude me from sitting through her reading what would be better presented in text form.
