Andrew Ferguson, the Poseur

I was disturbed by this lazy and sloppy review of "Fahrenheit 9/11", so I responded by email to the author, Andrew Ferguson.  

Is Andrew Ferguson a neoconservative?  At the moment, I can't answer that question, but my instinct from reading some of his columns is that he is more neoconservative than paleoconservative.  Certainly, the breadth of Mr. Ferguson's work is supportive of Republicans and hostile to Democrats.  And he is a Senior Editor at America's foremost neoconservative publication, The Weekly Standard.  I think a person like that should not attempt to deceive his readers by pretending to be impartial and objective.

Bloomberg.com has chosen Andrew Ferguson as it's correspondent on National Affairs.  I hadn't realized until now how conservative Bloomberg (the organization) is.  Silly me.
