Maureen Dowd comes to the tech press
Posted on | September 17, 2007 | No Comments
My old EE Times colleague, Alex Wolfe, one of the most talented writers in the tech industry, has gone Maureen Dowd on us, in a good way. Dowd, you probably know, is the New York Times columnist who tries to marry pop culture with politics. She’s done it, largely with success, for many years, but it’s a tired schtick today.
Alex has brought a bit of pop culture into the tech blogosphere (the real tech blogosphere) by reporting on the sound track behind the new Apple iPod ad that you can’t avoid on TV. It’s a great piece. Alex, you could write for Wired, but then you’ve got too much tech cred (EE degree and all). And if you keep “going Dowd” on us, make sure you find her photographer for your next candid.

That’s a sweet little piece. And I like Feist. How fun is that.
Yeah, Dowd. What does it tell you that I didn’t feel bad when not having a paid online subscription to the NYT meant I couldn’t read her any more.

Heard Dowd do an interview a couple years ago (maybe on NPR “Fresh Air”?) in which she said that upon becoming a columnist, a lot of her old sources stopped returning calls.
That certainly showed.
