I am a subscriber to tfp and will happily continue with it because much of your journalism is first class. However, a few things irk me. Bari Weiss is a shameless self promoter who understandably wants to keep promoting “the brand,” but it does occasionally enter puke inducing territory. I don’t need to be constantly reminded of the lofty mission she believes she is on. We’ll see how her principles hold up when a mainstream corporate buyer comes in to capitalize on her mostly great work. Secondly, in my 40+ years in corporate life I’ve seen this movie before: mostly youngish staffers believe they are doing god’s work and changing the world. This syndrome starts infecting judgement and knocks the product down a peg. Thirdly, the blind spot on Israel is so obvious to this Zionist Jew (me) and over the past year has echoes of North Korean media. The coverage of global antisemitism has mostly been excellent and vital, but the dearth of journalistic voices telling a different story on the current middle east wars is such a miss for tfp and I suspect is guided by the “she who must be obeyed” editor. Like I said , I am a very happy free press subscriber but not a blind one.
