David Sedaris on men calling him 'boss'

[gracchus]

As @VeronicaConnor noted in an earlier topic:

@VeronicaConnor

This is kinda what happened to Andy Rooney. He started out arguing about big topics, but by the end he was just a weird cranky old man yelling at clouds about the air in potato chip bags and even his core audience knew it. He was a laughing stock toward the end. An inauspicious end to a man who was a real journalist in his day.

CBS seems to be the landing place for genuinely fine writers* who need to make a late-career pivot making an easy buck by appealing to elderly people.

[* Rooney’s print work should be required reading for any aspiring reporter.]
