Good Boy Andrew Ross

Andrew, I just wanted to thank you for writing my character as savior of the world.

From Taibbi:

I’ve been trying not to say anything bad about Andrew Ross Sorkin. I even made a point of not watching Too Big To Fail so as not to get upset — and when I heard from friends that the film turned Hank Paulson into Joan of Arc, that decision seemed to have been validated.

Taibbi is smoked about Sorkin giving Goldman Sachs an exonerating “rubdown” in the pages of the Times. He goes on to mention Goldman buying a sponsorship in Sorkin’s real estate at the newspaper, comparing it to “selling editorial print content to mobsters” in the Russian kleptocracy.
