I'm so old I can remember when there was room at the T-P for Angus Lind and Chris Rose. You got one slice-of-life New Orleans column for (mostly boomer) natives and one in a similar vein for transplant faux-hipster douchebags. I wasn't a Rose fan but I will say the opportunity to complain about him was definitely part of what sold that paper to me. Nobody wins if he just up and goes away.
The New Orleans daily paper no longer has a Food Section, or a bona-fide "local color" column. I guess there's just nothing to do in this town anymore.
