The New York Times's intrepid reporter Dave Itzkoff reported on MidSouthCon today. I'm not sure why he chose MidSouthCon, but he avoided the usual cliches of con reporting, and didn't look down his nose too obviously at Fandom Assembled.

Though this is the photo they chose to lead off the article, and I detect a bit of "check out these weirdos" in that choice. (Nice wings, though -- wonder if she made them herself?)
