109 @nybooks contributors have signed a letter expressing dismay over editor Ian Buruma's firing: "his dismissal in these circumstances strikes us as an abandonment of the central mission of the Review, which is the free exploration of ideas."
As I was saying the other night, firing Buruma for publishing one bad article makes no sense (any editor will have misfires). There's something deeper going on -- likely a staff revolt (from the available evidence).
