Bill Kristol To Become New York Times Columnist In 2008

Danny Shea | December 28, 2007 06:37 PM


The Huffington Post has learned that, in a move bound to create controversy, the New York Times is set to announce that Bill Kristol will become a weekly columnist in 2008. Kristol, a prominent neo-conservative who recently departed Time magazine in what was reported as a "mutual" decision, has close ties to the White House and is a well-known proponent of the war in Iraq. Kristol also is a regular contributor to Fox News' Special Report with Brit Hume.

1. So much for their reputation..............

2. Yup. nt

[Rageneau]

10. You can't have the New York (Whore) Times w/o (Whores).

Kristol can join that list of illuminary wingnuts like Safire, Broder, Connelly, Miller, Gerth, and Curveball in upholding the NY(W)T's long tradition of fitting in with all the news that wingnuts print.

3. WOW!!! This will be GREAT!!!

Now we can actually READ his invasion-of-Iraq predictions on a weekly basis!

I'm hoping his first column is accompanied by a photograph of that square in downtown Baghdad that's been named after Liberator George W. Bush - and FINALLY those pics of our troops being bombarded with sweets 'n flowers will be published for all to see!

19. Ohhhh, Iraq is such old news

Billy Boy is on to bigger and better conquests like IraN.

[Patsy Stone]

4. Tune in next week

when he finds his office mate is Judith Miller, who they will bring back because she's "done her time".

5. life's a bitch for a conservative "writer" trying to find gainful employment ...

in this liberal media monopoly ...

[magbana]

6. Why Not?

Kristol and NYT have been collaborating for years. Guess he will replace Judy "I'm determined to start a war" Miller.

[Stephanie]

7. Why do they need TWO neo-cons? They already hav eDavid Brooks.

Kristol is Brooks' boss from the Weekly Standard. WTF? Why don't they just change their name to that and be done with it. I dearly wish I could cancel my subscription but I already did over Judy Miller. And to think I was worried about Murdoch buying the NYT!

8. Great...I love fiction

[Bolo Boffin]

9. Excellent!

Now if they'll just go ahead and print the column on two-ply...

[SoCalDem]

11. Just another page in the book on how LIBrul media tries to "see all sides"

but the right wing rags can still be as outrageous as they have always been..

shame on the Times..

15. We'll see if kristol's lies

create the kind of "controversary" the nyt(home to the mediawarwhore judy miller) has in mind.

[Elwood P Dowd]

16. Kristol doesn't lie

except when his lips move.
