In all honesty, I try not to be too harsh toward the Ist. Blogging one post daily is tough when you're trying to be original, or even just thoughtful. Being responsible for multiple posts a day is even harder.
Today's #MetroBaby post is a new low, though.
I find myself judging Brain's work by college writing standards, which is a separate topic. If one of my former students had handed me an essay that's constructed like the #MetroBaby post is, I'd have failed it. There's essentially no effort to offer any kind of observation or thought to what's already been said about the story. It's a regift.
Hell, maybe most of the Ist is last year's fruitcake.
Is DCist even worth reading anymore?
ReplyDeleteIf there's another reasonable choice, I'm all ears. Is there a general DC blog to which I could switch? Does anyone haunt We Love DC?
DeleteSPOILER ALERT! :)
ReplyDeleteHow would you grade the "fate-sealer"?
