For what it's worth: the broadcast was real.  I don't care much about TM for
the most part; didactic "well-crafted" prose isn't my bag, but I've got
nothing against TM except for that show that I heard; I'd have the same
reaction if I'd heard the same comment from Bono or from a friend.  It's the
words!  What an concept!

The VdL  jibe is a cheap one, and I am sure I have heard it made against
other women writters before. This does not stop Morrissons prose from being
turgid, or her books from being flyers-with all good intentions  you try to
read them, but end up throwing them at the wall.
