It is not akin to any of these things. This is a poor analogy. You are talking about a paper with a transparently distinct and hardened political ideology, not a university or newspaper that claims to have egalitarian ideals. It makes no difference who the Review’s writers were or where they work now. As far as Ann Coulter, she was associated with the Cornell Review, which is as equally contemptible as its Dartmouth counterpart. I would have nothing to do with anyone who writes for that newspaper either.

I do, however, find merit in your suggestion: I am putting this thread behind me too. Bye, all.
