Also, M*lo is over enough that I actually typed his name! The way to kill that attention-outrage-grift business model is to ignore it. But his gig is up. (Please don't anyone revive it by not ignoring him. Let him talk to himself).

My 2017 thread about all this—explaining why Milo was so sheepish, rather than outraged!!! as per brand, when conservatives no-platformed him. OTOH, he literally begs campuses to no-platform him & then performatively goes "ballistic." That was his $$ game.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/833809980449030144 …

Is an explicitly conservative outlet, would never hire a liberal, and also represents very little as far as the conservative base. But, yes, they are not in the Milo/grift game. Also they aren't winning within the party. https://twitter.com/LennyLiebmann/status/983137231861878786 …

That's what I said. Is it not clear? Milo is not NRO type.

That’s not the point. There’s an asymmetric way in which partisan media behaves. NRO is not part of that—it’s straightforward partisan media, has obvious left counterparts. There is no real left Milo, though.

He is done now, but his genre is huge and .. look at 2016 primaries/election.

His genre basically dominated the primary! "Lock her up" etc. won.
