Imagine that! Retiring 60 Minutes boss Don Hewitt says the Times's front page is being dictated by "demographics." That of course explains the new 27-year-old A & L editor who'll be plying us with pretentious essays about alternarock citing Freud and Nietzsche. In Howell's world pandering and demagoguery form a snug fit. It also explains why certain seventy-somethings are such debased idiots chasing down their target demographic. If not for their wealth and power they'd just be idiots.
