RIOT GRRRNUP - blech.

(But I’ve never been in The New Yorker and the NYT Magazine in the same week, so who am I to say, right?)

I somehow ended up advising on this piece? I used the term “renaissance grrrl” in my correspondence with the journalist which she liked until I pointed out it had already been used by the NY Post or Observer or some such publication. Looks like the editors ran in that direction, straight into a brrrick wall.

(I’d like to add that I think the journalist showed us a side of CB we haven’t really seen yet, and I think she did a great job. The headline is just unfortunate.)
