WilliamKristol is apparently ambivalent about his future at the New York Times ( according to Jeff Bercovici he was obviously embarrassed to be introduced at yesterday's IFC panel as a Times columnist). Kristol, whose hiring by the Times earlier this year was met with great criticism, had this to say regarding his Times contract, which is up for renewal in January: "I'm ambivalent....

New York Times opinion columnist WilliamKristol is not unaware that the Internet is speculating about his future at the paper. But he says he's had "zero issues" with the editorial staff of the Gray Lady. "Despite all the dramatics in the blogosphere it's been a very undramatic experience for me," he said at an Independent Film Channel panel this morning, according to the Observer ....
Earlier today, WilliamKristol was sitting alone by the entrance of Michael's checking his Blackberry. Mr. Kristol was there at the behest of the Independent Film Channel to participate in a panel discussion moderated by Arianna Huffington (and featuring Pete Hamill, Chrisopher Buckley, and Mr. Kristol) to help promote The IFC Media Project , a show which aims to take readers...
It must be nice to be WilliamKristol, to be able to live in a world of delusion and denial without repercussion and to build a celebrity career on a fantastic self-perception of perfection. Get it people: Kristol is infallible. His column in the New York Times yesterday, on first skim, seems reasonable enough. The Republican [...]
Famed conservative thinking-guy WilliamKristol, currently on secondment to the NYTimes Op-Ed page, finally wrote a paragraph that I will not take issue with on a factual and/or ideological (mostly factual) basis. This is not to say that his entire column yesterday was not hooey -- hooey it was! -- but it's nice to ignore the hooey every once in a while and find those margins of consensus,...
Drezner hopes so : A key point I’ve been making in my recent work on public intellectuals and the blogosphere is that blogs can function as an informal “peer review” system to fact-check, logic-check, and style-check more prominent PIs. I had in mind blogswarms that surrounded people like Michael Ignatieff, Paul Krugman, and WilliamKristol when they made tendentious or flawed arguments....
Better late than never, I suppose. WilliamKristol is finally figuring out that the Republicans screwed up the economy. The Bush administration will leave behind probably the most severe recession in at least a quarter-century. Fairly or unfairly, this will be viewed as George Bush’s economic meltdown. If Republicans and conservatives don’t come to grips with what’s happened, and can’t...
KRISTOL PREDICTS CHEERFULNESS.... The last eight years have been abysmal for most of the country, but they've been a boon for far-right journalists. George W. Bush never got around to doing an interview with the New York Times, but Bill...
Thanks to Jay for pointing to George Packer's post on the New Yorker's website echoing a call I made a few weeks ago: the NY Times really, really needs to fire WilliamKristol from the op-ed page (or, more precisely, not renew his one-year contract). Here's Packer's case -- he deserves enormous credit for burrowing through the Kristol archives to unearth a year's worth of malfeasance...
WilliamKristol's one-year contract as an op-ed writer for the New York Times is coming up for renewal, and George Packer of the The New Yorker says it's time for him to go. The real grounds for firing Kristol are that he didn't take his column seriously. In his year on the Op-Ed page, not one memorable sentence, not one provocative thought, not one valuable piece of information...
At lunchtime, I went to a panel for the new IFC six-part documentary series, The IFC Media Project. Hosted by Arianna Huffington, it featured Media Project host Gideon Yago (late of MTV News), NYT conservative columnist WilliamKristol, Legendary NYC writer Pete Hamill, and excommunicated National Review scion Christopher Buckley. It was the sort of [...]

... continue to put burdens on domestic manufacturers. That’s just — that’s reality. [11/19/08] – WILLIAMKRISTOL: Well, one problem with the auto industry is we have been telling them how to operate an awful lot, you know, in terms of CAFE standards and other things , probably which should not have been most — may have been the most — not the most intelligent way to help that industry....
