Great Regulars: Second, even though [Franz] Wright attacks

[Meg] Kearney for generically Facebook-inviting him to do something benign like "like" her program, and even though he then writes this absurd tirade against her and the MFA establishment, it turns out that, in the past, Wright has given two readings at Pine Manor's MFA. I mean, c'mon, if you felt this way about MFA programs, Franz, you shouldn't have accepted the invitations to Pine Manor, nor taken the honorariums. (In an interview, Meg Kearney confirms his participation in the program.)

from David Biespiel's Poetry Wire: The Rumpus: Is Franz Wright the Rush Limbaugh of American Poetry?
