Andrew Sullivan is back
After a yearlong hiatus from the world of political commentating, Andrew Sullivan is officially back in the business — but not back to his blog. New York Magazine announced Friday that the former New Republic editor and founder of the blog The Dish has joined its team as a contributing editor.
Sullivan told former blog subscribers in an email that he's wasting no time diving into longform journalism:
Sullivan says his break — which began when he shuttered his blog in January 2015 for a detox — was "revelatory," but with Donald Trump leading the Republican presidential race, he decided it was time for him to do his "civic duty to get engaged with this election."
