This week, I’m going against the grain.

You see, last Monday every columnist in America received an email from the American Content Editorial Society. (We call ourselves the ACES.) I believe that Jay Mann, Monique Demopoulos and Tom Farner also received the same email.

I didn’t save it so I don’t remember the exact wording, but it was something along the lines of if we wanted to stay in this elite club of journalists, we had to write about the Will Smith/Chris Rock altercation at the Oscars in our weekly columns.
