Take heart. As free-marketers have predicted, the marketplace will solve this problem, now that boatloads of money in recent years have been devoted to the creation of conservative flavors of mass communications.
The spiritual descendant of Will is probably somewhere in the estates of Connecticut, where a bow-tie-clad 8 year old sits, deep inside the pages of Proust, assiduously compiling the stray literary and cultural references that will become the benchmark of his work.
Until then, we all carry hope that the multimillion-dollar investment of News Corp. will bring returns, and that Sean Hannity will construct complete sentences.
