Entry: Blacklisted By NR Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/blacklisted_by_inr_i#15191 Post contents: As someone who for years has been urging his friends to put away their bad habit of subscribing to the "neocon rag,", it seems to me that NR would continue to function, even if everyone took my advice. It is heavily subsidized to provide a kind of Old Right front for neocon projects and interests; and its role, as I try to show in my book on the (non) conservative movement, is to create the illusion of journalistic continuity between the 1950s founding generation and the current neocon ideological hegemony. NR performs that function quite well, although it probably slipped up by allowing Radosh to beat up Evans. But that might have been ordered from the top, in order to make an example of someone who never broke from the "movement" but who had once been quite far on the right. I can't imagine that those advisors and sugar daddies who give Rich, Ramesh, and Miller their marching orders to Ramesh and Rich have anything but hatred for M. Stanton Evans. Sent at: 2009 01 08
