I need to point out, Eric, that you omitted a swear word from Wick’s proclamation. And just to offer context, about a month ago, Wick called himself “the worst editor in America.” So maybe he was actually paying you a compliment.

Finally, Wick said something smart.

What letter did the swear word start with, and where did it appear in the proclamation?

As a managing editor who also works for Wick, I applaud this news.

I guess he’s stopped being distracted by Celeste’s sartorial splendor? Maybe try different cufflinks.

Did you ever consider Wick could be dyslexic?

Dan: Note that he didn’t say I was the worst M.E. in the building.

Oh yeah?!? Well, Wick is the worst PERSON in America!
That just happened.

*points at TBR* Bit killer!

If you’re the worst managing editor in America, does that mean you’re better than all of the M.E.’s in Canada and Somalia?

I know Eric Celeste. Eric Celeste is a friend of mine. I’m offended, and I find it highly irresponsible for Wick to categorically assert that Eric is “the worst [expletive deleted] Managing Editor in America” — without some empirical data to support his thesis. It may very well prove true (and I wouldn’t bet against it), but Eric should be given the courtesy of the benefit of the doubt.

FrontBurner® launched in March 2003, the first blog in Dallas run by a media organization. This is where the editors of D Magazine come to waste a tremendous amount of time.
