My Comments
Quality impresses me. The ability to write a thoughtful, coherent post about a tough issue impresses me. Jez has plenty of quality contributors - Dodai's awesome, Megan's usually quite good. At very least, they are coherent. Moe's sloppy. The topics she choses to address are quality issues that merit attention, but her tone is childish and she just seems poorly informed - LOLZ I AM LIKE SO DRUNK ALSO BEN BERNANKE IS SOOO RETARDED CAN YOU BELIEVE HIM?? OMG!!!
Many Jez readers gave similar criticisms in the thread where Ana addressed "Thinking & Drinking".
Also, it's the elephant in the post, so I'll ask - was she encouraged to leave after the T&D debacle, or is the timing coincidental?
ug. i'm glad she's leaving Jezebel, her "unique style and voice" = half-baked pseudoanalysis of legitimate issues. she's pretty bad, at least as far as business/economy/politics is concerned.
