Lawrence Lessig on David Carr

Lawrence Lessig’s reaction to a New York Times piece

Everyone I’ve spoken to loved the piece. I think they loved it because it was a piece printed in the Times, and we’re a culture that loves attention more than accuracy.

Interestingly, the very same David Carr has written a piece about a specific “music scene” in Montreal that some Montrealers thought was condescending while part of the Canadian media swooned over getting the attention of the New York Times…
Funny how it goes.
