...Comes from Ace at Ace of Spades HQ (http://ace.mu.nu/) where he waxes poetic about the hypocritical outrage over at the NY Times over the nepotism at Commentary Magazine. Great stuff, as usual he nails it;
NYT Criticizes Nepotism At Commentary Magazine

John Podheretz will take over from his dad at Commentary, a hiring decision that will surprise no one at all.
.
Nepotism? Sure, but it's not as if J-Pod spends his days sailing in regattas or something. He is, I'm sure most know, sorta in the business.

But what is just precious is that that the NYT, now run by the drooling incompetent "Pinch" Sulzberger, the retarded offspring of "Punch" Sulzberger, actually dares to weigh in on this terrible neocon nepotism.

lol..the NY Crimes callin the kettle black eh..ha
One Podhoretz is worth a thousand Sulzbergers, as they say in the news business.
Norman Podhoretz's tenure at Commentary must be viewed as one of the great intellectual accomplishments of the 20th Century. Taken together with his books, the scope his legacy is enormous. If his son could do only half as well, we would be well served.
In order to get an idea of what John Podhoretz has inherited, read the prologue to Norman's autobiographical opus, Breaking Ranks. It is a letter to his son, explaining the evolution of his thinking, from radical leftist to neoconservative.
Once you finish the prologue, read the entire book. Then you'll understand what a joke this Sulzberger guy is.
I agree with you both.
The astoundingly and hypocritically bizarre thing is that Pinchy Sulzberger finds the nepotism at Commentary to be problematic.
At least John Podhoretz seems COMPETENT!
The same can't really be said of Pinchy.
