Dumber Harper’s

As some of you know, I also publish the monthly Smarter Harper’s page where I take on the liberal flotsam of Lewis Lapham’s increasingly irrelevant rag. Today, Andrew Sullivan points out that the New York Times reporter Chris Hedges, who gave a poorly received anti-war commencement speech at Rockford College, also wrote a boneheaded article for Harper’s (or, as Sullivan calls it, an “infamous piece of factually-challenged anti-Israeli propaganda”). Here’s the clarification from CAMERA which is nearly as long as Hedges’ original.

I let my subscription to Harper’s lapse – I just couldn’t bear to give another cent to Lapham. He and Howell should have a couple of single-malt scotches together and wallow in their own hauteur.
