Why did I get so much joy out of this article on Princeton student Katherine L. Milkman doing the numbers on the editors of the New Yorker fiction section? And why did the blandness of the editors’ comments on her research–which found male writers were chosen at 57-70%, and the story characters were overwhelmingly New York based–not surprise? Beats the hell out of me.
