I owe a massive apology to Maud and Dan Kennedy for what I wrote two posts down (“The Odd Couple”). I read their posts about the New Yorker Target ads uncarefully to begin with, and then thoughtlessly lumped them in with the sort of commentary I’d read in Slate and Fishbowl NY, which were of an entirely different stripe. And I hadn’t seen the actual magazine. Ergo, the actual force of their objection went over my head completely and I posted something deeply stupid. I apologize.
