CONOR FRIEDERSDORF READS ANDREW SULLIVAN so I don’t have to.
UPDATE: No, the link’s not bad, the site’s just down. I don’t know if it’s one of those pesky DOS attacks, or just insta-traffic. The gist, anyway, was that Andrew is taking his talking points about me from the Townhouse crowd these days, something I’ve noticed myself, which is why I read his site less and less.
OOPS: Disabled the link above, as I got this email:
This morning you linked to a post by Conor Friedersdorf defending you against Andrew Sullivan. I run the site, snarkybastards.com, and the no-talent [censored] who evidently run my server have decided that the traffic generated by your link violates my terms of service. I must therefore ask you to delink so that they will restore service long enough for me to retrieve my blog and move it elsewhere.
“No-talent [censored]” is a bit strong (it’s my “censorship,” not his!) but what kind of hosting service kills your site when it gets noticed? A lousy one, I guess.
LATER: While you’re waiting, some moving thoughts on insufficient condemnation of, well, everything!
