On Critics & Responsibility

In the wake of Bauer's hammer-drop on Acme yesterday, some are questioning the decision/need to run the one-star review on a sole visit, crappy as it was: "[Why] would Bauer not come back for another try—or even just leave well enough alone and not review it all—before he sold a locally-owned restaurant run by very farmer-supportive, community-driven chefs such as Traci Des Jardins and Thom Fox up the river? .... I think in fragile times like these, it's a critic's responsibility to think not once, but twice." Agree/disagree? Discuss. [7x7, yesterday]
