When the Jayson Blair scandal hit the New York Times they named names and quickly communicated to their readers how to they were going to avoid the issue in the future. People were fired or resigned. I have been an unabashed Maxim subscriber for close to 8 years. Maxim’s video game, music, and movie reviews have always been informative, fresh, and entertaining. Now I can’t trust anything in Maxim. The only way Maxim can keep me as a subscriber is if key people involved with this review scandal resign and a statement on how proper reviews in the future will be conducted is published.

If you Google Peisner, you’ll find he’s written some smart and funny stuff, not only about music. After reading some of his other work, I’m feeling bad for the guy. This was obviously a quick paycheck gig, beneath his other material, and now it’s blown up in his face. A drag that this is what he’s being judged for — the guy’s a heck of a good writer.
