FYI..for enjoyment

Steyn first came to my attention when he reviewed films for the old American Spectator- most media critics & reviewers are way too airy-fairy for my tastes, but I found that if he liked a film, I was liable to enjoy it as well.

During the impeachment/Lewinsky fiasco, he wrote a piece for the WSJ, "In Defense of Tabloid Sleaze" that was such a classic of parody, irony, and sarcasm that I saved it in my scrapbook. I still read it from time to time, as it has only improved with age.
