Tim Graham takes a break from media criticism to offer some music criticism in an April 8 NewsBusters post, proclaiming Morrissey to be a “Has-Been ’80s Pop Star.” Why? Because the Daily Beast published a column by Morrissey about the death of Margaret Thatcher.
Graham went on to complain: “Between the old Newsweek offering Morrissey a forum and Time magazine listing five hate-filled Thatcher protest songs, the two news magazines are showing why they’re dead or dying. Both have adored Obama with an embarrassing ardor.”
So, yeah, Graham’s music criticism is on a par with his media criticism.
