    Re: Broadsheet (shudder)

    What I love about Salon can not be improved upon by making any part of it girl-centric or "cheeky!" and sure as hell not by making it pink.

    Please know that not everything has to be branded chick-tacular to appeal to a female reader.

    I am a celebrity trash hound and love the chance to have a laugh at, or with, Martha et al. But to collect these wee pieces of trivia and sell them as a new site feature that allows women to see themselves reflected in the media is so offputting. And really, Broadsheet? That's just cringeworthy.
