As always, it a pleasure to step in while Andrew gets some much needed rest. Guest-blogging is not all that different than my day-to-day activities on the Dish – 24 of the 50 posts currently on the front page were written by me. All the substantive posts are Andrew's work, but it's my and Chris's job to read through the blogosphere and pick out the choicest bits. Andrew edits, approves, and spins what we find, but the illusion of an all-reading blogger is maintained by employing two extra sets of eyes.
I'll be checking Andrew's general e-mail account this week (andrew@theatlantic.com). We typically get around 450 e-mails a day, but correspondence drops significantly during Andrew's absences. If you want to see an e-mail of yours posted to the Dish, you have a much better chance of not being overlooked if you write this week.
He's never informed his readers that he's not writing the posts.
Sullivan really has never let go of his "capitalist" inclinations. His blog is a money making venture for him, and a vehicle to advertise his latest book. It's narcissism to the extreme on both fronts. Nice to know he's a lying fuck as well.. which he is for never having told anybody what was going on.
Thing is.. as in most ways these things go, it won't matter, and he'll keep making money because the vast majority of people in this world are emo fucks that you can exploit if you have low enough standards.
