Cue Sheet – April 4th, 2007

TASTY

    Apropos of nothing, I have just read television writer Jane Espenson's description of what she ate for lunch on July 26, 2006: "tongue sandwich from Art's Deli. It's exciting because it tastes you back!"

quodlibet,

PS

    Regarding the silliness of the “death of the classical CD” stories, Alex Ross offers a reality check: He finds that the number of new classical releases listed in Gramophone magazine has nearly doubled since 1988.
    And regarding my complaint about the journalistic laziness of parroting the numbers from campaign finance reports, there is one good story to tease out of those filings: Who is giving money to whom? That’s the real story. But it takes work, and the reporter has to be able to figure out which names are tied to which special interests. In Tucson, the late Chris Limberis was an expert at this. How many other reporters are so determined today?

quodlibet,
