Asked to explain, Frere-Jones said he was writing an article about a rapper. But according to the insider, the rapper’s representatives told the paper that no interview had taken place.[/quote] The strip club was where he did his research for his upcoming interview with a rapper. How many women that gave him lap dances were black? We have to make sure he's not racist. [quote]There were several ethical violations allegedly committed by Frere-Jones, such as promising Coachella coverage to an unnamed band if they paid his travel expenses, and accepting a trip to Joshua Tree National park paid for by Dom Pérignon. In addition to these questionable practices, there was apparently concern over Frere-Jones’ productivity. The music critic made his own schedule and reported directly to managing editor Mitra Kalita. As a result, “he wrote only about 45 stories between mid-August and April 1 — when his last story was published — while other reporters on the arts beat churned out significantly more during the same time period.”[/quote] Clickbait pieces about how there aren't enough black kids playing acoustic guitar are hard to write.
