"Reaction on Twitter and Facebook to yesterday's late-breaking news that the Village Voice had laid off J Hoberman, a staff writer since 1983 and chief film critic since 1988, was swift and harsh. ... Following the waves of fury, some who might be in a position to know have suggested that Hoberman will 'land on his feet' and I know I'm not alone in sincerely hoping he does. Today's must-read, then, is 'A History of Film Criticism at the Village Voice,' which Hoberman wrote back in October 2005 on the occasion of the alternative weekly's 50th anniversary."
