LOL! Oh, please! Did this character ever read the newspaper his story is in? More importantly, has the writer ever read her own newspaper?
BTW -- I've heard that she is married to the publisher of the Sun-Times. If so, that explains how she got her gig.
Jennifer Hunter who does a column under that name but who is the wife of the Sun-Times publisher John Cruikshank, talks a good game about being an ex-magazine editor but still gets her clout at the paper the old-fashioned way by being married to the boss.
