Anft Bids Farewell to City Papernew
          Media critic Michael Anft announces 
he is ending his  20-year on-and-off 
relationship with Baltimore City 
Paper and retiring "to flip through 
heretofore-unread copies of The New 
Yorker and Harper's." Anft takes a parting 
shot at  "the mostly uninspired local 
product we unfortunate 
viewers/readers/listeners have spewed at 
us."

    Baltimore City Paper Bitten on 25th Birthdaynew
          Originally Baltimore's alt-weekly was known as the City Squeeze and edited by "recent Johns Hopkins grad and inveterate pain-in-the-ass Russ Smith," Michael Anft writes. Anft takes a page from Smith's book and offers some biting suggestions for the Baltimore City Paper at the quarter-century mark, including spending more money on younger staff, instead of "aging hippies."
