I saw Rick Bragg on C-SPAN2 some time back, and he struck me for some reason as a man very much worthy of his last name -- perhaps I was jealous as a self-alleged writer that he'd hit the big time with his memoirs about a dirt-poor Southern childhood, or perhaps because I figured he was that very smelly creature, the Southern liberal. Whatever the case,
Bragg has staked a claim in Howell's rogue's gallery, and it will be entertaining to see how the Greatest Editor of All Time whitewashes (or should I say,
covers up; don't want to be racistsexisthomophobic) the problem.
