Faces Of The Day

Like some Doctor Who re-union, here’s Frank Foer, Mike Kinsley, Rick Hertzberg, and yours truly at Wednesday night’s 100th Anniversary dinner in honor of The New Republic. The NYT has a write-up of the event here.

I really hope TNR endures. These institutions matter. And the web has yet to create their equivalents.
