Which also happens to have pretty good articles every now and then.
Hear Hear - Christopher Hitchens was its editor, so it can't be that bad.
Which frankly, baffles me. I see it at the supermarket, right? Next to the other fashion magazines and it also looks like a fashion magazine?

So I'm not contesting the truth that it sometimes has serious heavyweights writing for it, I'm just baffled by that fact. It's like if you found out Gore Vidal had been writing for Good Housekeeping.

Yea, you and me both are baffled! I almost wonder if he treated it as a sinecure.
Hitchens was a columnist, not its EIC.
