There may be hope if the news about young men turning to the church for purpose is true. One can hope. Madeleine Kearns with the Free Press wrote a piece touching on that today, but as usual these days with the FP, there's a slant. :-/

Regardless of whether one is spiritual personally or not, if young people searching for what to do, and a church helps them find it, more power to them.

If TFP could just lose that slant, there could be some great writing. I suspect that Bari has now determined she must become like Fox News or CNNMSNBC and just give the subscribers what they want.

There's always going to be some slant - it just depends on whether that hill rolls toward reality, or slopes away into dreamy fantasyland.

Yup. 1.25 million subs on a substack platform might cause you to start to pitch a narrative, and not the story/facts. But that's the world she grew up in, worked in, and was educated in. All that said, she still does excellent work from time to time. Plus the UAT thing is a pretty cool. Doesn't help IMO with the last two Editor hires, not one bit.
