Players: Nicholas Kristof, columnist for the New York Times who’s
built his reputation on writing about poverty and human empathy; Kim
Kardashian sympathizers who have empathy for the rich and talentless,
plus the Turkish people.
The Opening Serve: Monday the world witnessed the dissolution of Kim
Kardashian’s 72-day marriage. And so did Nick Kristof. “Kim Kardashian
cld have spent her wedding money instead building 200 schools in poor
countries. That wld have lasted,” tweeted Kristof.
Adding: “On behalf of Amernian-Americans, I apologize for Kim
Kardashian. Let’s start a rumor that she’s actually Turkish.” [Asked
if he himself was Armenian, Kristof responds, “Yep, I’m partly
Armenian. The Armenian name was Hachikian.”]
