Some of you may have missed the news that the six-year-old neocon daily newspaper the New York Sun (slogan: "It Shines for All") has folded. (You're excused, in fact, if you missed the news that the six-year-old neocon daily newspaper the New York Sun ever existed.) One of the arguments I get in sometimes with my fellow liberal wingnutologists [1] is whether it's worthwhile to label the modern conservative movement "authoritarian." I've always argued that the term is a counterproductive misnomer. But having now read the setting Sun's "Guidelines for Interns" [2] at the NYC media gossip site Gawker, I may be forced to reconsider:
