Thank you, Salon
For running this column. When I saw Paglia's name on the masthead again, something went off in the back of my mind that I was disappointed, but I couldn't remember why I felt that way. Then I read your column today, and suddenly it's clear.
Her writing is self-involved, self-important, and self-oriented. She bloviates with just about every word. Her "insights" illuminate nothing and her "arguments" uncover nothing. The prose is, well, turgid. All in all an example of what I would not desire to read... I'm glad this exemplary column appeared early enough to prevent me from wasting too much time figuring out the mess all over again.
I'm not sure whom you were seeking to attract, but bringing back Paglia was not a step forward for Salon.
