Robert Christgau...

...was last month given the marching order by his longtime employer. Reason cited by the new owners of Village Voice for his dismissal was his "taste" in music. Christgau was editor of the monthly 'Consumer Guide' column since 1969 and whose opinion during the height of its cultural influence agitated stars like Lou Reed and Billy Joel to the extend of a public reprisal.

Being a small-time fan of his, i find his writing ranges at times from the mighty interesting to the mighty hilarious. I guess one would not agree with his taste so long as they avoid the 'entrapment' of his reviews.
