yeah it's CP Snows Two nations repeating its self - Arts Grads vs the oily engineers.

Some of his angst is that as a child of a major columnist in a broadsheet he feels that he should have a proper job on a proper news paper which in previous generations he woudl have stood a good chance of like say Polly Toynbee on the Guardian.

Due to the decimation of the traditional print media he can't get a nice job on the NYT as a columnist and has to slum it in a tabloid and they are using typical tabloid "monstering" techniques
