Wolff Trashes WSJ New York Section

Need a quick and fun read? Michael Wolff torches The Wall Street Journal’s New York section on his blog. He calls it “a museum of insipid newspaper-isms. There’s the flat-footed and obvious: ‘Video Image Search Proves Painstaking.’ The encomiums to anyone who seems the least civic-minded: ‘Quick-witted Office Praised.’ The belabored metaphors: ‘Heart of Tourism Keeps Beating.’ And, always, the dogged search for good news in our city: ‘Police, Vendors on Same Team.’” He blames Murdoch for the disaster: “[H]is is a newspaper sensibility of another era.”
