After watching Weiss get skewered on the Colbert Show, part of me was thinking it was his just desserts.<BR/><BR/>But another part of me wonders why Weiss takes the heat and not the New Yorker for printing (perhaps even requisitioning) such "old news" just because Spitzer makes it topical.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146512.post-22946256512775055352008-05-20T03:54:00.000-04:002008-05-20T03:54:00.000-04:00If you're not careful, you're going to find your F...If you're not careful, you're going to find your Francophile credentials revoked, Phoebe.<BR/><BR/>-----<BR/><BR/>And FWIW, writing the obvious is how to get published in NY Mag.
