1. Yglesias is exactly right. Among the democracies America has a very narrow political spectrum & elite media is ever narrower. https://twitter.com/mattyglesias/status/978715282662404096 …

7. It's true that there are liberals & leftists who can't abide any right-of-center writer. But I know many liberals & leftists that admire Douthat, Caldwell, Applebaum, Frum, Andrew Coyne, Cathy Young, etc. https://twitter.com/TPCarney/status/978732163062431746 …

8. I do think that liberals and conservatives are too focused on opinion pages, when real meat of newspapers & magazines is reporting.

9. I think there's good reason for newspapers to hire right-of-center reporters. The good news is National Review has been good at training reporters that get hired elsewhere: Betsy Woodruff, Tim Alberta, Robert Costa.

10. I think the value of writers like Woodruff is they have connections with GOP that facilitate reporting on the right & they are also good reporters. That's what we need more of.

My problem with the Times is that their conservative voices are boring, predictable, and not very sharp, Brooks and Stephens most particularly. In addition to the names in your piece, how about Daniel Larison or Tyler Cowan?

I'm a huge fan of Larison, although i don't really think he even counts as a conservative anymore.

1. The reason you can’t have socialists, anarchists, theocrats, etc writing for the same magazine is their assumptions about how the world works are axiomatically different. Liberals and conservatives disagree on big questions, but at least they’re speaking the same language.
