Today’s edition of the New York Sun’s Arts+ section<\/a> continues to defend its title as Official Newspaper of Gil Roth (and several other Roths, as seen in #s 1 and 2):<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Roth Time Redux<\/a>, discussing the impact of Dieter Roth,<\/li>\n
  2. a new exhibition on Philip Guston<\/a>, with a shout-out to Philip Roth,<\/li>\n
  3. MoMA’s screening<\/a> of Sergio Leone’s Once Upon a Time in the West<\/em>,<\/li>\n
  4. Daphne Merkin reviewing a book on the history of crazy-ass women<\/a>, and<\/li>\n
  5. and an absolute smackdown of Benny Morris’ version<\/a> of the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

However, since the owner of our company canceled our subscription to the NYTimes<\/em>, which he believes is “too liberal,” the only other choices are the Wall Street Journal<\/em> and the NYPost<\/em>. . .<\/p>\n
