The eloquent Wolcott waxes polemic on the Time cover that has many in a blogotizzy:
Her media stardom is primarily a male fantasy that is both sexist and racist. She is the pinup pundit of White Prerogative, her arrogant vanity perfect for a country and a media-political culture that refuse to recognize its postindustrial decline and decay. A country that still thinks it can whip the world into obeying its will.
Must be a slow news week (as opposed to Newsweek).
