In the meantime, Lileks has been buried in suggestions for what he should do next with his career, most of them involving signing on to some other publication.

He should quit the Strib. Keep the blog and try to sell advertising on it. I bet you he could get sales reps to work straight commission.

I also bet he wouldn't have a problem getting financing to cover the start up costs -- which really should not be that much.

Matt Drudge is a very rich man.

I’ve never read Lileks. Lol, I have trouble keeping up with FR and the DukeLax thing. But I had heard of him and judging from the reaction to his reassignment by the (Red) Star Tribune, he should have no problem making a sack full of money. Advertisers pay for eyeballs. It’s that simple.
