on bad writing
Jon Carroll goes medieval on some bad prose.
"It is a tough row to hoe, a large stone to roll up the hill, a dirty job. Nevertheless, the work of encouraging literacy among practitioners of public relations must continue. What persuasion cannot alter, ridicule may change."
Apparently this column, published on Monday, is a rerun from 1986. It still made me cackle with laughter.
