My worry about the New York Times is that it's got the only position as a national elitist general-interest paper. So the network news picks up its cues from the Times. And local papers do too. It has a huge influence. And we'd love to challenge it. ↗

Labour have been listening for too long to the so-called experts who think that competition is a dirty word and that communicating facts to our children is elitist. ↗

If feminism has receded in visibility and prestige, it is precisely because its vision of life's goals and rewards has become too narrow and elitist. ↗
