Huh, no one is bashing NY, state. I think you're overreacting. I visited NY a couple of years ago and I adored the city, can't wait to go there again. It's just an observation about some stuff I noticed reading articles in general - not only about TLS, but also about other films and art in general, in mags and newspapers from NY. And I have a lot of criticism I can offer regarding the British and Brazilian press as well...I'm just waiting to hear more from them. Just as an example, I can tell you for sure that the film reviews in the most important Rio de Janeiro newspaper are, in general, short, vapid, uninteresting and uninformative; I prefer the NY ones, even if they can be too cynical and sarcastic at times. So, it's not a case of hating NY and the NY press as if it's something definitive. The only definitive thing for me is that I indeed hate A.O. Scott and think he's an idiot. And that's it.
