					<description><![CDATA[I hope she files a bit lawsuit.  It&#039;s too bad she didn&#039;t stay and make he boss fire her.  I feel the same with professors who resign.

They should stay and fight and sue if they get wrongly fired.  In the meantime, fighting back really means naming those who wronged you.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Judith Miller adds something to the Weiss saga that I didn&#039;t see on other reports.

&lt;blockquote&gt;
Her resignation was also lamented by such leading right-of-center thinkers as Glenn Loury. “What a shame—for the country, and on the Times,” wrote Loury, an economics professor at Brown University, in an email. Calling Weiss “courageous,” he added that while the climate she described at the paper was “no surprise,” that it had “driven her to this point is, indeed, shocking.” &lt;b&gt;He also noted that Weiss was one of the few Times writers to sign the controversial “Harpers letter,” which he speculated might have been “the last straw” for the paper.&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I scanned the list of signatories, but didn&#039;t catch her name.
Too many people I didn&#039;t know, with a smattering of those I did.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Another reference to Ms Weiss appeared in a July 14, Conservative Treehouse article concerning the March, 2017, leaked Carter Page FISA application.  See here,

&#039;Ms. Ali Watkins was at Buzzfeed when she received the 82 pictures, one per page, of the March 17, 2017, unredacted FISA application from SSCI Director James Wolfe.  Ms. Watkins then parlayed that information, through Weiss, to get a gig at the New York Times.  Soon after, to cover their tracks, the NYT filed a FOIA request for the document they had obtained unlawfully.&#039;

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;I’m pretty much on the side of those who don’t have much sympathy for Weiss&lt;/i&gt;

I don&#039;t get the impression she&#039;s asking for sympathy. Publicity, maybe, but she&#039;s right to call out the NYT for its descent into madness. She may have been naive, but she wouldn&#039;t be the first person to join a decadent organization thinking she could be at least respected if not impactful. I&#039;ll give her credit for writing the letter, which has rightly embarrassed the Times, and not impugn her motives.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Weiss writes, &quot;..some coworkers insist I need to be rooted out if this company is to be a truly “inclusive” one, while others post ax emojis next to my name.&quot;

I know that it&#039;s old fashioned, but she has to be aware of the five w&#039;s,and she&#039;s pointedly ignoring number one.

I&#039;d been more impressed with her supposed &quot;fight&quot; if she actually fought. Not naming her tormentors says, &quot;I don&#039;t really mean it.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Churchill tempered the celebration of Dunkirk by noting that wars are not won by evacuations; similarly the culture dominated by progressive media outlets will not be won by resignations.

If getting woke really does result in going broke, that&#039;s what&#039;s going to do it.  Very few people who buy the New York Times know or care who Bari Weiss is. If by continuing to limit the range of expression the NYT alienates enough of its subscribers and advertisers that it can&#039;t stay in business... but the advertisers are just as woke these days (look at all the models and stock photos in your Costco newsletter), and the subscribers to the NYT include institutions (such as libraries and universities) already captured by the progressive left, and of course there&#039;s always billionaires like Carlos Slim and Jeff Bezos who may not care if they lose money...]]></description>
