The New York Press has released their annual “50 Most Loathsome New Yorkers” and two writers made the list: James Frey (no surprise) comes in at #6 and Jonathan Safran Foer at #28:
This very paper dubbed him [Safran Foer] not just a bad author, but a vile one. Everything but the box office was illuminated for the big-screen bomb of his first book. Both 2005 efforts came crashing down like the towers he writes so badly about.

Foer’s book should have been named “Everything is Over-rated.” Finally, someone in the press has wised up to that clown.
