...ongoing ratings war in Miami, where six news/talk shows crowd the air, four in English, two in Spanish. Soon after Berg's death, Tom Leykis of WNWS told his listeners the real name of a popular, less vitriolic competitor who works at a rival station under the pseudonym Neil Rogers, and urged them to call and harass him. "Rogers," who received death threats in 1980 for his opposition to the arrival of the Cuban boat people, believes that Leykis was enabling listeners to attack him "a la Alan Berg."

...imponderables is graceful and funny. It is also ladylike: she never entangles former companions in rueful confessions. She tells of an unsatisfactory long affair with a well-known director, and although there must be 25,000 people in show business who know his name, she gives him a discreet pseudonym (Robin, for Robin Hood, because of his left-wing politics).

It could be the South Bronx, East Los Angeles, Amsterdam or London-the traditional dumping grounds for Asia...
...about his flophouse experiences became his first book. He knew that the seamy life depicted in Down and Out in Paris and London (1933) would unnerve and embarrass his parents, so he told his agent that he did not want the book published under his own name: "As a pseudonym, a name I always use when tramping etc. is P.S. Burton, but if you don't think this sounds a probable kind of name, what about Kenneth Miles, George Orwell, H. Lewis Allways. I rather favor George Orwell." George, the patron saint of England, plus Orwell, a river that...
