Right ... was that comment supposed to be sarcastic or serious? Is the author actually trying to make some kind of point, or is he just demonstrating a weird sort of snobbery?
He is a snob because he doesn’t care for Bowie and thinks all the press space lent to him is over the top?
I go with the latter. I've read the article twice now and can't make out any larger sort of point. Bowie was an extremely talented pop musician and song writer, for whatever that's worth in the scheme of things.
it is sarcasm- if it was to be any more plain...
he should have lumped a khardashian into his article
lol
