Michael Wolff takes on Tina Brown in the bitch stakes. It's a battle of the titans. Tina Brown's relatively new to the media gossip beat, so Wolff gives her a review. He's squeamish about her column's racial references, which counts as a point to Tina. The overall verdict: "she's stylish and crass." That's positive, by the way. But Wolff can't resist a dig at Tina's lunching habits. He says she's spending more time at Tea and Sympathy, the charmingly mediocre English expat hangout, than at the Four Seasons. That hurts.
