First, the bad news:
– Bryan Preston has left Hot Air for a producer’s slot on the Laura Ingraham show. I am going to miss, among other things, the Ventilators.
– Ed Morrissey is closing Captain’s Quarters. I know, I never did get around to putting the Captain on the roll (too much bloat already), but I did keep an eye on his site from time to time.
Now, the good:
– The reason Ed’s closing down CQ is because he’s replacing Bryan at Hot Air. He’s definitely moving on up.
This will be a great change for Ed. He’s had a pretty good stage with Captain’s quarters but Hot Air will give him a better one for daily posts. I try not to miss his weekly radio show. He has a depth of understanding on the national front that few others have.
