    This is nn open letter to Kathleen Deveney - Asst. Managing Editor, Newsweek; Jon Meacham, Editor, Newsweek regarding the Yummy vs. Slummy article found in the Family section of the August 13, 2007 edition. My primary complaint is that the magazine, readers and advertisers would have better served if the Family Section had reported on one of the many relevant and important women & family initiatives easily found on the internet that are much more deserving of Newsweek's publication than the "wanna be blog rant" that Ms. Deveney delivered. AARRGGHHH. Erin www.expectingexecutive.com An excerpt- You, all of you that worked on this Newsweek article, really have some nerve. I am positive that you, as a whole, have irritated, angered, offended, bewildered, insulted and alienated some remarkable women who share their messages, visions, experiences, hopes and passions using on-line forums, blogs, social networks and websites. You need not search far to find truly exceptional women bloggers. Bloggers whose writing far surpasses your mediocre literary standard. These are women with visions, projects and causes that would benefit enormously with the mere mention of their blog or name in your article. You provide MILFs with the free press instead? Come on! Of the 50 million blogs out there you, you found Yummy Mummies but could not find www.BlogHer.org and source some women bloggers worthy of your mention?
