  Stop Jon Friedman Before He Writes Again
Media critic Jon Friedman has gotten even worse.

His column today is all about how hard it is to be Steve Nieve, a classical musician who feels like he doesn't get the respect that he deserves from music critics.

Inexplicable, no? Yes. Until you reach this sentence...

I caught up with Nieve and Teodori last Saturday at the house they were renting in Amagansett, on the eastern tip of Long Island....

Ah...the old, "I'm on vacation but if I can find something to write about it won't count as vacation" trick.....

Isn't Steve Nieve the keyboardist for Elvis Costello?

Never mind. I just read the link and see that it is the same Steve Nieve. Who knew that he wrote an opera?

But you're right about Jon Friedman. Why a guy is pontificating about media, journalists, etc on a stock site is beyond me...
