There's a slavish adoption of American trends here. And we see that in the universities here, and therefore we also see it in the publishing companies. The problem is a cultural contagion and not a corporate one. I would like us to be able to laugh it off.

It's beyond satire. These people are doing our work for us in making a mockery of themselves.
