  I assume this is about the New Yorker (and not the NYT as another commenter suggested)

Yes, that was a slip of my pen (or keyboard). He was at the New Yorker.

A common enough mistake :) Re. your other comment though, I'm not sure the NYer has ever cared about worrying what conservatives will think about their contributors, at least not in my lifetime. I just read a lovely new Zadie Smith essay yesterday where she talked about her commitment to socialist ideals!

Which is ironic compared to the NYT, because I think the New Yorker tends to slip under the conservative media's radar, whereas the NYT has conspicuously attempted to appeal to conservatives but in doing so has only alienated some more liberal readers while still catching a whole lot of conservative ire.

		Socialism is one thing, but I think neither publication would be comfortable having an employee who casually mentions they "hate the West" and goes on to insinuate the October 7th attack was acceptable.
