New York Times style reporter and Beauty Junkies author Alex Kuczynski is a divisive figure in journalism. For some, the Critical Shopper columnist is bafflingly superficial, an over-privileged aesthete who sullies the paper's reputation with conspicuous consumption and the jet-set lifestyles of the ultra-rich. Others simply see her as a shrewd and pragmatic businesswoman. After all, she delivers what people want — high-end shopping tips, luxury-product critiques, and the best place to buy a $5,000 chinchilla coat. This afternoon, the recherché but always entertaining Kuczynski hosts a discussion on Style and Substance: Reporting on Popular Culture at Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism.
