Sahl’s China Card

So, Mort Sahl doesn’t like the work his publicists are doing for him (“Fear and Loathing on Broadway,” by Lawrence Christon, Nov. 1).

Does he think his wife China does any better when she dismisses “Jewish housewives” in her search for “eager minds” to pack the house at his premiere?

Tell us, China, are Jewish housewives incapable of keeping up with the Living Legend’s rapier wit because they’re Jewish or because they’re housewives?

If China represents her husband’s thinking, call me an ex-fan of Mort Sahl.
