Frere-Jones versus Hoefler: The Wolf of Wall Street III

The events regarding the quarrel earlier in 2014 between Tobias Frere-Jones and Jonathan Hoefler are summarized and analyzed by Henk Gianotten in an article (in Dutch) in Publish, vol. 4, 2014. Titled TFJ en de rat, passages of Henk's article are shown below. The first one relates his own experience with Hoefler. After explaining that TFJ left Font Bureau in 1999 for Hoefler's company in New York in 1999 with a promise that he would be 50% owner, a promise that would never become reality, he ends with a strong-worded paragraph (second quote below) in which he invents a new Dutch word, letterrat.
