Lots of good discussion at the Hyphen editorial retreat this weekend. Look out for a new and improved magazine in 2005. Besides planning for the next year, we also ate a lot of kalbi and shared stories of personal injuries. Adrienne fell on her face in a bathroom (and hit her head on a wall too on the way down). Stef couldn't move for 3 days after doing squats. And topping it all, Neela zipped up her eyelid once. Ouch!!!
Now, for the news:
No surprises here. TV networks get graded on diversity and fail miserably. Priceless quote from Karen Narasaki of the Asian Pacific American Media Coalition: "I said, `So Asians don't look good scantily clad? I just came back from Hawaii and they look pretty damn good.'"
Whatever happened to James Yee, who was falsely accused of spying? He gets a hero's welcome in Sacramento.
And here's an update on a story we reported on in Issue 1. David Wong has been in prison for more than a decade for a murder he most likely didn't commit. His lawyers file for dismissal.
