I am so pleased that Pynchon, though sympathetic to those who now call
themselves Left of the NY Times (how Left is that? Ptnchon asks in BE),
satirizes them in BE. While the muckraking is important, and we can't
expect the NY Times, the Voice, Mother Jones, to do it without, at the same
time, turning off anyone with half a brain---who see how the yellow fog
journalism, frecked with red, now brownish blood, drips down the drain into
the waste counterpunching its shadow boxing partners.
