[…] When we tried to contact Alterman for comment, he e-mailed us back: “I don’t have a lot to say. I enjoy PAGE SIX but I don’t admire it. I imagine most people feel that way.” Mee-ouch!
March 12, 2003: The Week magazine held a forum on media bias featuring Janeane Garofalo, Arianna Huffington, Eric Alterman and William McGowan.” […] Jeff Jarvis: “hey, if you’re going to get dissed by someone, it’s much better to be dissed by Brown than Alterman.”
