Like a fat kid in a chip shop (am I allowed to write that?), I'm a glutton for any medium that's bad for me - the crappier the better. Got a moronic point of view? Bring it on. Clueless journo with looming deadline? I've got you in my sights.

How can it be that you've got all those comments over there at that newspaper and none here?
Let me take that 0 away from the counter.
The internet's anonymity really does give folks a chance to say/write what they might not say/write if someone they knew saw them. That can be the beauty of the web. You can be who you want to be.
I love this freedom, and see its positive possibilities. Well, I know that others view criticism in another light.
But. Criticism of pop music? When I was in my young adulthood in the 1960's, something different really was going on in the culture, and those of us passing through that decade either loved or hated it. We took our music so, so seriously. We probably thought that the musicians also took it seriously.
Maybe they did.
It was the rise of the LP album and different sorts of radio stations.
Nowadays there are all sorts of ways to hearing music, and of making music. Big business is definitely a player.
Oh, now I am beginning to ramble.
And the comment count has a plus one.
Best wishes.
