Regarding Lileks

A friendly editor invokes a literary anecdote to capture the nature of the Minneapolis Star Tribune’s treatment of James Lileks:

Reminds me of the famous Evelyn Waugh line upon hearing that doctors had removed a benign tumor from Randolph Churchill: “It was a typical triumph of modern science,” said Waugh, “to find the only part of Randolph that was not malignant and remove it.”
