Apparently writer Stanley Crouch showed up at Tina Brown’s party last night to crow about his assault on critic Dale Peck. Choire Sicha reports that Crouch bragged:
“[I] had the distinct feeling that if I hit him a few more times, he’d say thank you and call me his daddy.”
Says Sicha: “That’s so sweet! Between this kind of gay-baiting claptrap, his propensity for punching co-workers, and the ill-regard he’s held in by a number of female editors for his tacky behavior with them, we’re surprised the dude still gets work at all.”
