How do I get on this blacklist?

Axios has a hilariously credulous new look at Bari Weiss’s new conservative web magazine:
While refusing to tell readers that Weiss and her venture are conservative, Axios obligingly refers to Weiss and her cohort as "independent" three times.— Jamison Foser (@jamisonfoser) December 14, 2022
This passage, in which Axios touts the "independence" of a roster of writers that includes a general partner at $28 billion VC Firm, is *art* pic.twitter.com/BYn3SpHjS5— Jamison Foser (@jamisonfoser) December 14, 2022
A boldly independent publication that will publish a wide array of people who all agree that the typical assistant professor of English literature is more powerful than Peter Thiel or Sam Alito.
This is my own favorite juxtaposition:
Catch up quick: Weiss left The New York Times as an op-ed columnist in July 2020, arguing she had become a victim of “a ‘new McCarthyism’ that has taken root at the paper of record.” Bowles left The Times shortly after in 2021.

Last year, Marketwatch reported that Weiss made over $800,000 from her newsletter alone, which at the time had 14,000 paid subscribers. The newsletter has more than double that number of paid subscribers today.

The UATX website does not currently provide any concrete plans for any future endeavors. It does, however, have a hilariously pompous video about their two-week summer debate camp which can’t go 30 seconds without name-checking the elite schools the marks students actually attend. Making money by boldly and independently telling alt-right billionaires that they’re right about everything seems a lot easier!
