What bugs me most about this article is the snarky oh-so-trying-to-be-casual air of disrespect. Whatever your response to Streisand's current work, her fifty year long career certainly deserves more respect than this little putz gives her. I find his tone condescending, trivializing and mean. He didn't have to blindly puff her up, but a better writer might have challenged her more honestly. Had he done so, she would have easily dispatched him with a flick of a nail. This is a lame drive by, poorly written and unworthy of his subject. The unforgivable "People" reference negates everything else. It's called Wikipedia dude. Try it out.
