The thing you have to remember is that you're paying $50/year for Krugman AND Brooks, so the thing you have to remember is:
If you were buying Cheerios, and they put on the box that it only contained %5 fecal matter, would you buy Cheerios. Let's just assume that you could wash that off each Cheerio, and have a relatively fecal free breakfast.
$50 is for the WHOLE product, the product only being as good as its worst flaw.
Are you betting, AGAIN?

That *sounds* bad, but in fact -- the Brooks columns are clearly labelled.
ReplyDeleteSo are Tierney's.
So, they're that much easier to avoid. It's not like Brooks and Tierney make guest appearances in Krugman.
Oooo -- and what if Gail Collins does a quick guest piece?
