Yes, indeed, what a bad sport. She must be feeling very bitter, as it wasn't even a witty, rueful or ironic piece. I think she'll look back on it and regret writing it. I would, anyway.
ReplyDeleteAt least she admits as such, though. But she should have waited a bit, I think, if she wanted to say what she did. Some of her more salient points (acting v. impersonating) are lost in the bitterness.
