The New Yorker article wasn't quite as critical of Fallaci as I thought it might be. One magazine that's gone WAY left in the past few years is Harper's. It's verging into moonbat territory.

Virtually every issue of the New Yorker editorializes against President Bush. Every issue.

I agree about Harper's. At one time, there was a wide range of viewpoints expressed in the magazine: libertarian, liberal, conservative. Can you believe that Fred Reed and Tom Bethell were once Washington Editors for the magazine? Or that PJ O'Rourke wrote articles for it? Or George Gilder, Michael Novak, Paul Craig Roberts, Peter Brimelow, Jude Wanniski, Norman Podhoretz, Ben Wattenberg, and James Q. Wilson? No more. Such is Lewis Lapham's current influence on the magazine.

BTW, Lapham once wrote a Carter-bashing article for American Spectator
