Ross Douthat?!? Just a stunning coup by Bari & Nick. Ratings are about to go nuclear. Absolute genius, Bari has got her finger on America’s pulse like no one else in media.

I'm guessing this is sarcastic. If you are under 60 his reputation is that he is a moron who will give a handy to any billionaire that slowed down long enough. You seem dumb though so this could be genuine, which if so, lol.

"Go nuclear" in that ratings will be completely vaporized? Bari Weiss couldn't be further from having her finger on America's pulse. Nobody wanted 60 Minutes to dive even further into right-wing disinformation.

I don’t see that. I don’t consider her to be especially bright, either. As for Weiss’ management prowess? Time will tell.

He was full of shit at the Times. He won't be any better at 60 Minutes, which essentially doesn't exist anymore.
