In praise of Pitchfork

It’s come to my attention that some corners are still under the impression that I’m anti-Pitchfork. I’d like to clarify: I find the site as useful and worthwhile now as it’s been in nearly a decade. The news feels reasonably objective, the stable of reviewers includes a number of talented writers, and the columns and interviews are often great. The video content, which is where my attention leans these days, is superb. I have quibbles of taste, of course, but life goes on.
