Hunting of the Snark

"You have to give David Denby credit for bravery: Writing a book titled Snark: It's Mean, It's Personal, and It's Ruining Our Conversation is like writing a book called Keying My Car: It's The Wrong Thing To Do or Why Flaming Bags of Dog Poop on My Doorstep Just Aren't Funny. You invite the transgression even as you decry it; you loose the hounds on yourself."

— Adam Sternbergh on David Denby in New York Magazine, Jan. 5-12, 2009
