In today’s Guardian is a story - the format nicked from New York magazine, mag nerds - about what the deputy editor of the NME is wearing these days.

Keen eyed readers will notice that Krissi Murison - good rock name! - is rather attractive. What the hell is going on? During my 19 years in music journalism, hacks were generally social misfits who could barely communicate with the opposite sex let alone attract them -Tony Parsons anyone? -not sultry types in needle cords.

Ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated?
