A read of the Wintour interview is to put to rest all notion that, to be successful, one requires talent. As to her being a feminist? Odell writes and sounds like a jackass, and manages to singlehandedly affirm a lot of public perception about young women, and pretty much seals any question anyone might have had about Cosmopolitan’s fall from what had once been one hell of a magazine, with quality writing, to what it has become. Odell’s writing is peppered with, “I was like…”. More discouraging, a Simon & Schuster editor “found” her on Twitter, and they supported the blasted book she wrote. Why does any of this matter? Because the work world didn’t depend on “likes,” and it, and journalism, (Odell cannot dare call herself a “journalist”), and writing, and newspapers, and magazines were worth something, and because Odell doesn’t get it.

This Mojito Russian Jew is offended by what I see as a racist, and boring, headline.
