    So our WUKY contretemps merits a paragraph in the NYTimes. Scroll down to “Keillor Uncensored.”

    I can’t tell whether this made the print version.

    Thanks to Gin Petty for finding this mention.

    Update: Via Poppysmatus, they’re running this on Salon’s wires ervice feed, too. Here’s the AP link through Yahoo so you don’t have to sit through a commercial.

    Meanwhile, if you’re just tired of all this stuff and would like to read some good description of a week at the Sewanee Writer’s Conference, I suggest you drop by Jim Tomlinson’s journal. Sewanee is one of the biggest conferences going on in the general region. I’ve wanted to go for years.

    Yes, it did make the print version. David Feldman (author of the Imponderables series) saw the article and passed the information along to JimT. A link may show up on his blog (sorry, don’t know how to do a hyperlink here) http://www.imponderables.com/index.php.
