Oh, I'm sorry. Please pass on my apology for the "poor dear" thing. I realise it is patronising and unnecessary.

  "poor dear" isn't the worst she's been called w/r/t this bit of budgetary honesty coming to light. Nor has she read all that much of the commentary. She has read the pieces by Matt Yglesias, Ezra Klein, etc. The most recent one on Al Jazeera really pissed her off though, because that person had written for cheap or for free for the Atlantic in the past. Which seems disingenuous at best. Some of her writings for the Atlantic: http://www.theatlantic.com/sarah-kendzior/ http://www.theatlantic.com/sarah-kendzior/ Her article for Al Jazeera: http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2013/03/201331116423560886.html http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2013/03/20133111642... I think Sarah is trying to make a point about wage stagnation, but it is lost in a mist of links and appeals to our better selves. If money wasn't being actively redistributed towards the super wealthy there would be more money for individuals to pay for good writing. I think we can all agree on that. But in the mean time, you take what you can get and work with what you have.
