Disagree. NR still publishes some good pieces. Victor Davis Hanson is excellent there. Kevin Williamson is not everyone's cup of tea but he's very smart and an entertaining writer. Michael Brendan Dougherty writes a lot of good pieces.

The problem is mainly "the editors," guys like Lowry and Frankovich who very much see themselves and the magazine as the voice of "respectable conservatism" in the age of Trump. They jumped on the Covington kids because it fit their narrative.

"Kevin Williamson is not everyone's cup of tea..."

Sure, smart dude, but waaay too full of himself. And his TDS just gets old, along with Goldberg, Nordlinger, and a few others who just can't move on.

After MANY years I had to let my subscription lapse. Because I CAN move on.

“Disagree. NR still publishes some good pieces. Victor Davis Hanson is excellent there. Kevin Williamson is not everyone’s cup of tea but he’s very smart and an entertaining writer. Michael Brendan Dougherty writes a lot of good pieces.”

Those people have or could easily find other outlets.

” Kevin Williamson is not everyone’s cup of tea but he’s very smart and an entertaining writer. “

Probably those unemployed, low-life rural blue collar types that Williamson says need to just go die.

It they can’t learn to code software, eff them- the new motto of the Lowry-Goldberg Review.
