a year ago today: publicity for the bogan delusion

This morning Chris Johnston's piece in The Age came out. I haven't read it yet, can't face it. I did get two emails expressing very diverse opinions on the story, the first of which made assumptions about the book and the second of which was just overwhelmingly positive and though neither sender had read the thing, I did feel the second one 'got it', maybe just because it was positive. I had to write and rewrite my response to the first to get over my general irritation at its tone.
