Matt Cherette Is Going To Move To New York City
Doree Shafrir is completely correct about this latest contretemps.
I’m actually completely surprised by the tone of many of the comments. I cannot figure out these reactions. I guess, in part, as has been discussed TO DEATH this week, people really do find it easy (both personally and technologically) to make fun of people on the Internets!I am? Well, I should probably get on that…
Anyway, for reasons unclear to me—because I don’t think I’m that interesting or worthy of something like this—but appreciated regardless, Daniel D’Addario wrote a profile on me for The Awl.
So, if you care to, go forth and read it (but try to ignore the negative comments, even though I wasn’t able to do so).
You say you were surprised by the tone of many of the comments but I think there was something off about the tone of the piece, and my sense is that the comments were less critical of Matt qua Matt and more critical of the author of the post. It felt a little Observer manqué and maybe didn’t quite pull it off.
