From the Editor in Chief – Franchise Law Journal
Binx Bolling, the protagonist of Walker Percy’s novel The Moviegoer , was every editor-in-chief’s dream audience:
“Whenever I feel bad, I go to the library and read controversial periodicals… Down I plunk myself with a liberal weekly at one of the massive tables, read it from cover to cover, nodding to myself whenever the writer scores a point. Damn right, old son, I say, jerking my chair in approval. Pour it on them. Then up and over to the rack for a conservative monthly and down in a fresh cool chair to join the counterattack. Oh ho, say I, and hold fast to the chair arm: that one did it: eviscerated! And then out and away into the sunlight, my neck prickling with satisfaction.”
Some might say that nobody could ever react link Binx to Franchise Law Journal…
