Not to mention the inaccuracy

Posted by: FleetStreetBarber 09:26 am EDT 09/13/14
In reply to: re: NY Times article on Streisand - 2muchtyme 09:17 am EDT 09/13/14

According to the Times writer, "'People' was a classic song written for Ms. Streisand’s 1968 film “Funny Girl.” Really?

No mention of the Oscar she won for it either. Or the Oscar she won for "Evergreen."

No doubt the Times will admit an "editing error." But this is so wrong that it certainly calls into question the writer's qualifications. Does anyone know his history at the Times and elsewhere?

Yes, a previous poster alluded to his distinguished parentage(father AND mother). What I want to know is any info about his Times and other journalistic experience prior to this article--IF such experience exists.

Excuse me for daring to ask if anyone knew anything about him other than the names of his parents. Like no one here ever does or should ask something that could be looked up somewhere.

Thank you.
Well, he certainly has an extensive history at the Times, albeit as a Styles writer--which shouldn't be a negative. I just hope--if he's to have a long career with the Times--that this Streisand piece is the exception, not the rule, to his knowledge.
As a side note, I'm surprised that the Times, which at least used to be obsessed with someone's age, doesn't cite his.
