The T Word

If “many people are terrified of doing something objectionable and getting called out ,” as Matt Belloni reports in his latest “What I’m Hearingcolumn, it naturally follows that there exists a climate of Robespierrelike terror in this town, which I’ve been asserting for two or three years now.

If I had a quarter for every toxic tut-tutter in this town (starting with Variety’s Steven Gaydos) who’s said I’m full of shit about this, I could buy a new Beemer and have a fair amount left over.
