Word Pirates

More controversy over VQR’s airing of nasty comments its editorial folks made over submissions. This time, Howard Junker, editor of Zyzzyva, is speaking out against the blog post, asking, “Since when are Genoways and his minions entitled to Righteous Indignation while winnowing the infinite chaff from the most rare wheat?”

Now Ted Genoways from VQR has responded to Junker. Ooh… Fight! Fight!

Seriously, editors, just don’t publicly make fun of your submissions. It’s tasteless. (Privately, of course, do whatever you want.) (Via)
