To lose one centrist columnist, Mister Worthing, may be regarded as a misfortune. To lose two looks like carelessness.
A pair of prominent writers announced they’re leaving their prominent publications Tuesday. The resignations appear to be related to recent debates within the wider media landscape about the alleged stifling of public discourse.
