I wouldn't take a few out-of-context quotes (and the one on
pop-photography as a substitute for work is somewhat apt as-is) as
evidence of Sontag's stupidity.

I'm amazed at the hostility that greets contemporary critical theory
in some quarters. If this list weren't international, I'd blame it on
good old American anti-intellectualism.
