Readers, a Pre-Labor-Day roundup for you:
Here's what and who is NOT in the Sunday Paper this week. Let's call it a hiatus. A respite. A tabloid/news cycle sabbatical from ubiquitous reporting on certain topics and people. Often worthy, sometimes seen here. But I'm just taking a break from:
Donald Trump
Any Kardashian or Jenner.
Amy Schumer (who is teaming with Jennifer Lawrence to write a funny screenplay, fyi. That is fun and exciting news!).
Anything having to do with predicted gal-feuds at tonight's VMA's.
Either Williams sister, though I am a big fan of each and both.
Hillary and/or her email troubles.
Ditto Carly and/or her campaign troubles.
Cosby.
Believe it or not, there is actually lots of other news!
Enjoy the week's other most important news about, frequently by, but not exclusively for, women in business, digital, tech, media, music, tv, film, fashion, sports, literature, education, and pop culture. New subscribers, you'll notice that it gets delivered roughly in that order. Be sure to enjoy it, be sure to have a laugh, be sure to share.
And be sure to keep sending me any interesting items you see along the way here.
Peruse the back catalogue or sign up at LZSundayPaper.com.
Sometimes there's so much interesting stuff out there I can't wait 'til Sunday so I tweet it during the week. Follow me @LZSundayPaper.
See you next week, in an issue dated September something. Whew. I will be getting ready to teach my Fall Class at NYU! Syllabi-R-Us.

The LZ Sunday Paperâ„¢ (soon to be registered trademarked and copyrighted) launched at the dawn of 2014. We expose and recirculate interesting content that is about, and frequently by, women in business, with a dose of ultra-relevant culture. We think that culture comes in size high, medium, and low. Our audience for this content is vast and not gender-driven. Every week we expect at least one good laugh. Send suggestions, clips, or names of people you think might enjoy this to LZSundayPaper@gmail.com.
