ALL-TIME AMERICAN WRITERS TOURNAMENT
WE PLAN to include at least one “public intellectual” (emphasis on the public) in the Tournament. In one of the next two (7th or 8th) brackets. That is, a writer known primarily for opinions about literature and culture. A critic– but more.
The two leading candidates for the spot are both women– Susan Sontag and Camille Paglia. Which one belongs?
Or should someone else take that slot?

Oh god, I hate them both! They were so in love with themselves, thought they were smarter than anybody else. I can’t vote for either!
