Hanson needs to read more Hemingway. He tries too hard to impress with flowery oratory and sometimes gets clumsy with it.

Lets get pissed.

Hemingway is certainly my favorite writer in terms of style. Presumably got that style as a reporter for the KC Star using the Star's famous style sheet.

Hanson writes like the academic that he is.

Here is a link to the KC Star's style sheet. I read it from time to time to remind myself how to write.
