That was the point.
They ran his crap, he hurt them, now they regret it.

‘They ran his crap, he hurt them, now they regret it.’
Over the years there have been a fair number of NR staffers who have gone off the rails, including members of the Buckley family. The magazine has never enforced a party line, so long as someone is still in the conservative movement. They have never hinted that they regret publishing anything these folks wrote for them. These folks include Brent Bozell, Jr., Christopher Buckley, Garry Wills, Joan Didion, Jeffrey Hart, David Frum, and numerous lesser lights.
It is much the same here at FR, with rather more restrictions, as is the owner’s right. When you have done 1% as much as NR for the conservative movement, I will be interested in whom you want to write off.
