An Inclusive Litany

3/5/02

The London Daily Telegraph, March 5, 2002, reports on a decision by editors of the New Statesman, a British leftist magazine, not to publish pro-American articles:
[Editor Peter] Wilby said he had taken a policy decision that the magazine would vigorously oppose the "war on terrorism", partly to make itself distinctive in a crowded media market. He said there was also a clear commercial logic to his magazine's editorial line, as circulation had surged by almost 25 per cent since September 11.
