Diversity at Slate
2nd November 2020
Kevin Williamson points the finger of shame.
A Slate headline: “Most Slate Staffers Are Voting for Biden—but Not All of Us.”
Another way of writing the same headline: “Not One Slate Staffer Is Voting for Trump, But At Least One Is Voting for the Green Party Candidate.”
It is of some interest that National Review, an explicitly conservative journal of opinion, has more political diversity among its contributors than does Slate, which, unless I have missed something, still presents itself as a conventional news source rather than as a journal of left-wing advocacy such as The Nation or The New Republic. The New York Times does not have one pro-Trump columnist on its pages.
