St Paul "Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value."
Imagine being nostalgic for a time when you credulously and uncritically accepted every single thing written in the NYT as the truth. Given how much this defense of Weiss centers around profits I can't say I'm surprised that Weiss's journalistic integrity goes entirely unexamined.
This paragraph of the essay in particular seems like an important critique, now more than ever.
