Garrison Keillor and the End of Old Media

Garrison Keillor, speaking to a hoard of old media publishers and authors at the annual Authors Guild benefit last month, said: "I'm an older writer, so I have nostalgia about these occasions and always imagine that this might be the last one." Garrison likened the evening to a "1951 meeting of CBS Radio affiliates" or a "1982 convention of typewriter repairmen." Boo-rah.
