Some people have a face made for radio, as the saying goes, but everyone in NYC media also knows that many a print journalist has a face made for a byline. Nevertheless, Seattle Weekly crackhead Brian Miller writes, "These are good times to be a journalist. Never has our profession been more handsome." Aside from the typical tv news examples, Miller cites Maureen Dowd, Kevin Sites, our Puerto Rican sister, and Micah Garen and Marie-H l ne Carleton (above) as examples of the new breed of "hot" journos.

So, that's five examples, one of whom probably has no idea she's gone from drunken blogger to journalist. Does five constitute an era of attractive reportage? Last time we were at Michael's, the answer was still no.
