Unspun Does TV (and gets CJR cred)
Last year NY-1, which features my monthly roundup of all the strange things going on in the media (and some glorious, okay), received a nice thumbs-up from Columbia Journalism Review.
The piece was about hypey marketers shouting how they had successfully procured the -- ahem -- elusive 18 year old male demographic. That's spin to get coverage and hardly true (either that those folks are elusive or the jokers "got them").
It was cool to see a mainstream press outlet say it: "It's the type of news that enlightens, and the type that CJR Daily would like to see more often, especially on TV.

Unspun strikes again!
