Times Select - "The Equivalent To... A Few Martinis"

Observers continue to puzzle over the Times decision to kill the buzz generated by their top columnists by hiding them behind the TimesReject barricade.  A hint to the strategy was provided by Martin Nisenholtz, president of New York Times Digital.  Mr. Nisenholtz informed E&P that, for regular Times readers, the buzz is everything, and that access to the Time columnists would be "the equivalent to... a few martinis".

Don Luskin is not convinced.  Mickey Kaus, in "Let the Victims Speak, Part II:", links the TimesReject strategy to troubling issues of class and race.  And the Man Sans Q has been following the Times most e-mailed stories, searching for the new Invisible Men (and Women).

And how is TimesReject doing financially?  Per the NY Times Company website, they have an investor's conference call scheduled for Oct 19 to discuss the third quarter.  Presumably, the subject will come up.

And since the column is now locked up in Times Select, one can Dowdify the presented text as:

Don't get...Times Select.

OK, WaPo, you next. Come quietly and you won't go in the same cell with the Hag.

A few Martinis ? That would put me right to sleep... So I guess Mr. Nisenholtz is right!
