Moss: Why Aren’t the Writers Up Here?
At the National Magazine Awards: With folks tittering about Newsweek NBC’s Mark Whitaker saying that New York Magazine editor Adam Moss is the new David Remnick (after New York last night cleaned up the way Remnick’s New Yorker has in previous years), a pithy comment by Moss got missed.
“I’ve never understood,” Moss said after apologetically taking the stage for the fifth time to accept an award, “why we don’t give these awards to the writers, themselves.”
He’s not alone in wondering why it’s always the editors-in-chief who accept awards, even for the work of individuals.
