Rec. #503: 'The Simpsons' to 'The Problem With Apu': Drop Dead



What: This past weekend, I tweeted this about Linda Holmes, host of NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour:

"I know that @pchh isn't meant to be a contest, but I've been listening to episode after episode where @lindaholmes is SO RIGHT that she just keeps winning."

On Monday, Holmes published the article "The Simpsons to The Problem With Apu: Drop Dead," thereby providing additional evidence that she is on a streak of being SO RIGHT.

Representative quote: "The entire focus of the story of Marge is what a reader with nothing at stake should do about the social obligation they feel to look like they're not racist."

How to get it: Holmes posted the review to Monkey See, her NPR blog for pop culture news and analysis.

Connection to previous Wreckage: Linda Holmes was part of List #66: Public Voices to Pay Attention To.
