He had already been published in the Saturday Evening
Post, a weekly magazine with mass distribution and a
vast audience, as well as Esquire and Cavalier which
were also widely distributed in the US -- so an
argument based on the notion that Pynchon had only
previously been published in obscure magazines  and
now had a shot a big audience doesn't hold water. Nice
try, though.
