• November 19 -- AIDS "Angels" vs. "Rancid" Reaganites
Editor Frank Rich pens a poisonous, 2,200-word excoriation of the Reagan administration's attitude toward AIDS in a hagiography of HBO's adaptation of the anti-Reagan gay advocacy play "Angels in America." Rich writes: "This epic is, among other things, a searing indictment of how the Reagan administration's long silence stoked the plague of AIDS in the 1980's....it accurately conveys the rancid hypocrisy among powerful closeted gay Republicans in Washington as AIDS spiraled."
