This week's New Yorker has a long piece by Janet Malcolm about a Murder trial held in Queens. She thinks Journalism is to be questioned: "Malice remains its animating impulse" "A trial offers unique opportunities for journalistic heartlessness." A fascinating piece. I don't agree with some of her observations but what a unusual style. Now I have to read her most famous work.
"Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible."
