Because of the events of the last half century, this is a city that journalists and academics love to examine and study. In focusing on the sensational, they often concoct maddening generalizations about what they&#8217;ve found here. In the time I&#8217;ve lived in Detroit, I&#8217;ve come to realize that the most sensational claims and the public perception they create often have little to do with the day-to-day reality of being a Detroiter. This is a complicated city, and even in the most sincere efforts to cull some truth from it, visiting journalists often end up spreading damaging falsehoods.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most annoying is that Detroit has no grocery stores.&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/class-war\">class-war<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/us\">us<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/politics\">politics<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/media\">media<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/stupid\">stupid<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/journalism\">journalism<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/society\">society<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.delicious.com\/orzelc\/economics\">economics<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div class=\"delicious-link\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.math.pacificu.edu\/~emmons\/JofUR\/\">Journal of Universal Rejection<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-extended\">&#8220;The JofUR solicits any and all types of manuscript: poetry, prose, visual art, and research articles. You name it, we take it, and reject it. Your manuscript may be formatted however you wish. Frankly, we don&#8217;t care.<\/p>\n<p>After submitting your work, the decision process varies. Often the Editor-in-Chief will reject your work out-of-hand, without even reading it! However, he might read it. Probably he&#8217;ll skim. At other times your manuscript may be sent to anonymous referees. Unless they are the Editor-in-Chief&#8217;s wife or graduate school buddies, it is unlikely that the referees will even understand what is going on. Rejection will follow as swiftly as a bird dropping from a great height after being struck by a stone. At other times, rejection may languish like your email buried in the Editor-in-Chief&#8217;s inbox. But it will come, swift or slow, as surely as death.
