That Ebert Guy


I was reading that thing over at Deadspin detailing Tiger Wood's texts to one of the porn babes he was drilling when I saw this:
http://deadspin.com/5482198/my-roger-ebert-story?skyline=true&s=i. It's by Will Leitch where he describes the kindness and the nature of Roger Ebert and how he rewarded that by turning on the guy. Pretty good story. It's tough for me to look at Ebert now, with the disfigurement he has suffered due to cancer but I do hope he continues writing. I didn't always agree with him but he is one of the few guys out there who speaks and writes without either talking down or below his audience. That's a rare quality.
