  1. Gore Vidal says nice things about women in the new Vanity Fair

    In his prime, writer Gore Vidal didn't have much nice to say about people, and he enjoyed sharing his opinions. On live television in 1968, he referred to fellow commentator William F.

Andy Warhol was "the only genius I've ever known with an I.Q. of 60."
