Even After the Shock, It’s Hard to Get Used to Absence of Magic
The Times is to be congratulated for printing Pam McGee’s story regarding her personal involvement with Magic Johnson. Bill Dwyre’s story is certainly not to be overlooked, either.

The misdirected national heroism showered on Johnson eclipsed the sexual irresponsibility of a man who should have known better.
