| Back inside the wire: Frum joins The Atlantic |
| 2014-03-20 |
| A little comedy relief from reading about Zombie Stalin, AKA Vlad Putin. The Atlantic, that bastion of conservatism lands them some hard core conservative in the persona of David Frum: pro gun control, pro gay marriage and big government advocate. The Atlantic says: "David is a gutsy, heterodox thinker and a lovely writer--the very definition of the sort of contributor who has distinguished The Atlantic all these years..." You'll notice they didn't use the small c word, you know, the one longer than four letters. From TFA: After an extended absence from full-time journalism, conservative columnist David Frum is joining The Atlantic as a senior editor, according to a release Wednesday. In his new role, Frum will write for both The Atlantic's website and print magazine. Previously, Frum wrote for his own blog FrumForum.com, which was hosted by Newsweek/The Daily Beast from January 2012 to May 2013. Before that, he spent five years writing for the National Review. He is also a frequent contributor to CNN. Before his career in media he served as a special assistant to President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2002. |
