El Ess Ess Update

A week ago I asked my faithful readers to alert me to anything involving the crack journalist Laura Sessions Stepp. Yesterday I actually got a few LSS-related e-mails. I'm quite grateful. Thanks!

The big news is that her particular brand of investigative journalism will no longer be featured in the Style section. Instead, it's moving over to Health. This sucks because I now have to read all the bylines in a section that I've been ignoring since moving to Washington in 2001. Perhaps this is retribution for her refusal to accept the Post's buyout offer a few months ago? I'll save such juicy gossip for the people who follow that sort of thing.

Well, kids, you know what to do. Scan the Health section diligently. I am eagerly anticipating her piece on high school students forming into something called "cliques."

  10. Just read it. Not very exciting. No references to youth. Just space-filler.

    But thank you for the alert.
