TO ASK THE QUESTION IS TO ANSWER IT
Eric Alterman on the Weekly Standard

Most readers by now know that Eric Alterman is the author of the most provocative and stimulating book on politics and the media to appear so far this year, What Liberal Media?. (And I'm not just saying that because I make a fleeting appearance in its pages.)

Today at his weblog, Altercation, Alterman asks the question, "How lame is the Weekly Standard?" [Note: Sixth item.]

Judging from Alterman's observations, I would say the Weekly Standard is pretty damned lame. But isn't that par for the course for any project in which William Kristol is involved?
