And I'm not sure if salon ran something similar before. Most of their entertaining writers are pretty huge fans of the show, and this article was actually republished in salon from a different source (they've started subcontracting/republishing a lot of stuff from secondary sources lately).
I just went back and looked. It was Matt Zoller Seitz. He didn't say it was racist or anything, just that it was a sort of WASP fantasy.
