George Frederick Will, 73, is a Pulitzer Prize
winner. Have I piqued your interest yet? Well, there is more. He has been
called ‘perhaps the most powerful journalist in America’ by the Wall Street
Journal. He has had a first marriage that ended in a divorce that was pretty
much a train-wreck. He was educated at Princeton and Oxford. You get the
picture, don’t you? George Will, in many ways, is both heads of a coin at the
same time – there is the unflinching respectability that comes with being
America’s most revered conservative journalist, then there is the inevitable
criticism that is doled out at him, and finally, there is that disastrous first
marriage. To put it all in one sentence, this man can single-handedly make sure
that the gossip columnists of the country are fed and clothed for quite some
time.
