Well, of course. But I *pay* for Salon, because they provide an alternative voice that isn't heard anywhere else in the media. So, given that I help to keep them afloat, I would say that gives me the right to provide feedback when I think they're heading in a wrong direction. Don't get me wrong, I still thing that Salon is basically great. I love the poitical coverage, much of the arts coverage (especially the movie and book reviews), I enjoy King Kaufman and Tom Tomorrow, War Room and Broadsheet, and lots more.
I will also always stick up for the right of every woman to control her own body and her own sexuality. But what I can't stomach is a small group of over-entitled women who want to be writers, but who have nothing to say, spilling out their quasi-pornographic narratives of self-obsession in the pages of my favorite magazine. It doesn't belong here. Haven't you heard of *diaries*? You don't have to publish every last dribble from your psyche, some things are better kept to yourself. If you have to, start a blog, hopefully no-one will notice.
