At Gawker, two = trend. The NYT appears to have adopted the same rule for the Style section. Below is an article about the sudden rash of movies about publicistsrash meaning "Phone Booth" and "People I Know." "How did publicists become Hollywood's villains of choice?" the NYT asks, without a trace of irony. All publicists aren't bad, it points out. No, but if you're going to talk about publicists that aren't bad, don't reference uber-flack Pat Kinglsey. Kingsley's broken many a journalist over less-than-sychophantic interviews by, among other things, refusing to let them interview anyone else she representswhich would be half the entertainment industry.
