Did you see the article in the New York Times about la rentree and how everyone is depressed because the economy is not good? They had some columnist from Elle commenting in this very overly dramatic French way, I thought it was really funny. Not good journalism because they didn’t talk about why the economy is bad, just that it is bad, but you know, funny all the same, for me at least.
