While there were always some good things to read in WS, the overtly political stuff tuned to today’s politics always carried the taint of NeoCon Bill Kristol.

I guess Bill Kristol is starting to have regrets about being a never Trumper about now.

They are learning the impossible-to-put-off-much-longer lesson that the Dem Party,CNN and MSNBC are also learning-—you can’t grow your audience/constituencies by being not much of anything else except AGAINST TRUMP, and at least half the American people.

Way back in the early ‘90s I got a subscription, so happy until I read it. Lukewarm and uninformative. Canceled the subscription.

Very likely and brilliant scenario for the Weekly Standard. Bet it happens, when you peel back the onion, and follow the money.

This is great news... does this mean that bitter, angry little bastard Mort Kondracke, goes away?

Every time he open his face I wanna grab his neck and just squeeze.

I have been watching and painfully listening to this FOX fixture Juan Williams, and I still can’t figure out what could be wrong with his brain.He MAKES NO SENSE EVER.

I don’t know, just thinking out loud, perhaps Billy ate all the profits?

Good riddance. More like a NEO-conservative rag than a conservative one.

Maybe Fox can take a lesson from this? The base of viewers has no appetite for fake conservatives.

“”Now if only Fox would drop Goldberg and I’d be happy.””

When does he appear? I haven’t seen him since O’Reilly was taken off FOX.....

Even the brand is mud. Liquidate, best you can do with the smouldering remains of a dumpster fire.

Hays will pop up somewhere to spout his moldy ideas and strategies for five times the money he serves.

These guys are like washed-up baseball managers. There’s always another place where they can lose a few more.
