All stories about "Snide Remarks"

This week, Stuart Emmrich, the travel editor at The New York Times, is fielding questions from readers for the paper's popular "Talk to the Newsroom" feature. My favorite part of the interview is when two readers call the Travel section out for being completely focused on high-end crap that no normal person can afford. Another highlight is when Cole Couture, a questioner who claims to work in the airline industry, takes Mr. Emmrich to task for the frequent errors in the flight information at the end of destination articles. Mr. Emmrich is forced to admit that his section is rife with "recurring mistakes" of this sort. Ouch. But Emmrich's interview really didn't address any of the issues that I have with the Times travel section, so I've written him a letter of my own and posted it here.
