manages to dumb it down for the ninth-grade reading level the
L. A. Times is written to.
After
Like a lot of people, as soon as I got my copy of Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue," I immediately thought of the German literary critic Hans Robert Jauss.
it would be difficult not to bring it down a few notches, but MC M. C. provides Times readers w/ a simple & simplistic recap of one-time Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's alleged personae as a culture warrior, watchdog, reformer, veep
* & celebrity. (The shorter: Palin is a typical politician, going w/ whatever works for her, whenever it works.) Phases of her career, one might say. Or, as Mark Heisler
typed today (forgot audio distraction for today's bus expedition, had to read the dog-trainer first page-to-last [not in that order, however] in order to avoid our own thoughts)
NBA seasons are divided into phases, or as we call them in sports journalism, "cliches."
*Elements of Style©: Did this insufferable whore decide that "veep" now means "losing vice-presidential candidate," rather than "vice-president, that is, someone who has actually held said office, even if it was the vice-presidency of the Tupperware© Club?"
