Time Magazine kicks out Bill Kristol

I think any objective person could make a strong argument that the neocon columnist William Kristol had been the most catastrophically wrong when it came to writing about weapons of mass destruction in pre-invasion Iraq and Iran’s nuclear weapon program. That’s why many were astonished that Time Magazine had hired him as a “star columnist” about a year ago to contribute regularly to the magazine. As some pointed out, Time was basically rewarding him for being one of the lead cheerleaders in a war that had by then gone terribly sour.

Well, the news came recently that Time will not be renewing Kristol’s contract. It’s still unclear why this is happening, and it should be noted that it looks like Time will be bringing in an editor from the conservative magazine the National Review for a regular column.
