That’s the recurring blind spot in the criticism of snark. Can it be nasty? Definitely. Is Perez Hilton a repugnant Horseman of the Apocalypse? You bet. Is snark scattershot in its application? Of course—all too often it’s applied like a clawhammer to the soft skulls of undeserving targets. Does the reflexive glibness practiced at certain outposts of the Internet (which, contrary to Denby’s sensationalism, flourish mainly in the niche of media and celebrity gossip; snarky blogs about economics, business, politics, and technology are the rare exceptions) produce, in the regular reader, a wearying hopelessness, building up in your system like mercury poisoning? Yes, I’m afraid it does—though no more so than the wearying hopelessness that might come from watching too much Nancy Grace.
Charges against snark are valid, especially when backed up with cherry-picked evidence. But you could make the same accusations against all strains of humor, throughout history, when misapplied. In targeting snark, Denby sights a trendy straw man, but he misses the important point that snark is not an idea; it’s a conduit—an outrage delivery device. He claims that snark is the favored voice of a generation “who know, by the time they are 12, the mechanics of hype, spin, and big money,” and about this, he’s exactly right. But instead of moving on to denounce the toxic pervasiveness of hype, spin, and big money, he blames the refuseniks who rail against it, claiming that everything seems “lifeless and unreal to them.”

Farago was a Hungarian-born journalist who worked for the Associated Press. He had a reputation as a great miser and bluffer. A couple of years earlier he had been sent to Abyssinia on the eve of the Italian invasion, which began in October 1935 and was completed by May 1936. He discovered a country that had never freed itself from the Middle Ages—nor had it wished to do so—ruled by Haile Selassie, its emperor, and a tiny aristocracy which enjoyed total power. Here they had even dispensed with prisons. If a man killed another, the nearest armed guard would execute him on the spot, and there were buffalo-hide whips and branding irons ready in the street to be used on minor criminals. Proven liars were scourged, and debtors chained to their creditors. Slave markets existed in the remoter towns, and Farago described naked slaves of both sexes being exhibited for sale.
