Weigel to the Atlantic?

Donald Douglas on Twitter asked me if I knew whether David Weigel had gotten a new job. As I mentioned earlier, Dave told me he had received three or four offers, but he didn’t say who had made the offers, and I didn’t ask. But then I saw this Hot Air Green Room post by Karl: Andrew […]
