Washingtonpost.com Adds NR's Ramesh Ponnuru to Website Lineup

August 6th, 2007 9:01 AM

The Washington Post website is not usually a place someone would go to find conservatives. But the Post has created a new Discussion Groups area, and one of those areas is "Right Matters" -- with National Review writer and deep-thinker Ramesh Ponnuru. Ramesh is also the author of the recent book Party of Death, which has some neat data on abortion and media bias

Liberals still have plenty of options at the new area, including discussions moderated by Post columnists E.J. Dionne and Eugene Robinson. The Washingtonpost.com people have also added "Rights Watchers" from the left-leaning Human Rights Watch, and "The Secularist's Corner" with "Freethinkers" author Susan Jacoby, for the many Post subscribers who think God is an angry comic-book character manufactured by the vast right-wing conspiracy.

Let's wish Ramesh well in that strange land on the Internet, which has seemed quite inhospitable since the quickly dissolving Ben Domenech fiasco. That blog lasted about five days.
