# By Michael Lewis, published in the NYT today
- josephlord 13y agoNYT => paywall (maybe a weak one but there nevertheless and I don't read rather than working around it). Also I suspect (note I have read the NYT piece) that this is an equally original piece and the Michael Lewis with a book to sell has done similar interviews (or other PR such as press releases) with as many relevant publications as possible.
- 001sky 13y agoThe actual Michael Lewis article (linked above) is 10,000 words. It's not (the expected) fluff piece for PR purposes. More reminiscent of how books used to be serialized/published in the press before going to print. Definitely worth reading. The piece here is fine for promting discussion but the info in the original work would make that discussion better. Its simple to Delete your cookies and/or just use incognito if the NYT is being a PITA.
