Where all my journalists at?

      Many a journalist or writer has read Will Strunk and E. B. White's classic The Elements of Style. In the YouTube age, that necessitates a rap version. Journalism, baby!

      And so it goes: robot prose. What's good for journalism and corporate communications isn't good for all writing. Thanks to Strunk and White I can't get florid or disjoint my style without being shamed like a child molester by twenty-year-old "experts." Even worse: I've internalized that shame.

      Fuck those old prescriptive library buzzards: they've lobotomized us all!

      There are no journalists left, only presstitutes and repeaters.
