True, but. Some choices are so egregiously bad they deserve mention.
And the article did defend other choices that have been criticized, so
they weren't merely dissing anyone in sight.

Can't judge on most of those, but I get a little weary of the tons of
articles about who is overrated. It's like the writers feel a need to
be
superior to someone, anyone. And we eat it up.

I remember some article in Esquire years and years ago, asking various
writers to say who they thought were the most overrated and underrated
writers. Most of them happily agreed to dish. But Tennesse Williams (I

said it was a long time ago), after giving the name of a writer he
thought
underrated said that no writer who takes his craft seriously is
overrated.
Good for him.
