爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
These two departments more than anything else, and the irresistible picture of a man editing a woman's magazine, brought forth an era of newspaper paragraphing and a flood of so-called "humorous" references to the magazine and editor. It became the vogue to poke fun at both. The humorous papers took it up, the cartoonists helped it along, and actors introduced the name of the magazine on the stage in plays and skits. Never did a periodical receive such an amount of gratuitous advertising. Much of the wit was absolutely without malice: some of it was written by Edward Bok's best friends, who volunteered to "let up" would he but raise a finger.

白话
这两个专栏,加上“一个男人主编女性杂志”这个惹眼的画面,引来报纸连篇累牍的调侃,幽默文章、漫画、舞台剧都拿杂志和主编开玩笑。博克没有反击,因为他看明白:这些玩笑大多没有恶意,有些还是好朋友写的,只要他递个话就能停。结果反而是铺天盖地的免费宣传。核心是:被议论不一定是坏事,关键看议论有没有恶意、你能不能沉住气,把注意力放回内容本身。
上下文
博克主编《妇女家庭杂志》时,因男性身份主持女性刊物而成为媒体调侃对象,这段讲他的应对。
