![]() Modern Timezby Stan SinbergThese are Modern Timez to live in, and Stan Sinberg explores them each week in his award-winning topical humor column. Sophisticated humor columns are noticeably absent from most "alternative" or college newspapers. This may be due to the fact that most humor columns aren't humorous, or they sacrifice thought-provoking analysis for cheap laughs. Modern Timez will make your readers laugh and think with points sharp and blunt (and how many points do you know that are sharp and blunt?) Often veering from the usual narrative format of most columns, Modern Timez tackles a broad range of subject matter as well. It averages 700-800 words in length. |
Stan's column was nominated in mid-1996 for its second California Newspaper Publishers' Best Columnist Award, and he previously was awarded second-place by the National Society of Newspaper Columnists for Best Humor Columnist. His work has appeared in many, many publications, including the Washington Post, Newsday, LA Times, Wall Street Journal, OMNI, American Journalism Review, Playgirl, PC-Laptop, Cosmopolitan, Family Circle, etc. In addition, he wrote for Gannett's Marin Independent Journal for three years before switching over to the weekly Pacific Sun. Stan also does commentary for public radio station KQED.
