Hmmm

Wouldn't it be ironic if modern American conservatism went out on the same magazine it came in on?

It's debatable, of course, whether it would truly be "conservatism" that's carried away; more like the academy of irrelevant and ineffectual soothsayers, philosophes, and thinly-veiled confidence men who have infested this once-great publication (and other lesser, but still once-respected, publications).

From this distance, I'd say no great loss. And I dare say the loss diminishes inversely to the space between it and the observer. Close up, you might need a microscope to find it.
