Conservative magazine The Weekly Standard is on shaky ground, and its closure might be imminent, it was reported Tuesday. Sources familiar with the matter told CNN that Editor-in-Chief Stephen Hayes warned employees in multiple phone calls that the publication’s future is uncertain. After sparring with parent company MediaDC, Hayes began looking for a new owner to buy the magazine, but after months of searching, was told that MediaDC no longer wanted to sell. According to CNN, MediaDC chairman Ryan McKibben then scheduled a meeting with staff expected to occur next week, as the Weekly Standard teambraces for bad news. The outlet has become a well-respected platform for conservative opinions following its inception in 1995, but has been seriously critical of President Donald Trump, prompting his supporters to fire back in outrage. However, CNN was told The Weekly Standard‘s web traffic has actually increased, which would, in theory, be a good sign regardless of the negative reader reactions. Though rumors of its potential closure are swirling, The Weekly Standard‘s fate remains unclear at this time. https://www.mediaite.com/online/con...ekly-standard-reportedly-close-to-shuttering/ The conservative movement the Weekly Standard represents is dead. Trump killed it. Only fascist extreme right wingnuts remain with their GatewayPundit and Breitbart. They didn't go full Trump Cult. There is no one left who wants to read a "traditional conservative" news magazine. Not in the age of Breitbart, WND, Drudge, Daily Caller and all the other various flavors of crazy cultist propaganda outlets.
You mean no one left to read a "neo-conservative" news magazine. Well, if the magazine shutters the writers can join Bill Kristol over at MSNBC.
Any names of these sources? Its the same thing with you leftists everytime. BTW, Hayes is a never Trumper.
Good riddance. A bunch of wimps constantly clamoring for farm boys from flyover country be sent off to hellholes to fight wars on behalf of Israel, Saudi Arabia or whoever else is pulling their strings. They and their neo-con buddies are responsible for some of our biggest foreign policy disasters yet they not only refuse to admit it, but they still expect to be taken seriously. The capper is, we are supposed to support whatever loser cuck they put up, eg Romney, Bush, McCain, but when it is their turn to support our guy, ie Trump, suddenly they want to virtue signal for the liberal media.
RINOs have lost all relevance for a long time! Nobody with half a brain considers any RINO liberal of any use! Most obstruct President Trump's policies for the sake of obstruction and gladly wimp out and give in the the extreme liberal Democrats demands! These guys need to grow a pair but, it will never happen! The only consolation of the midterm elections is it sent these RINOs into retirement by their losing their positions. Less RINO liberals atleast!
