He's sometimes a tad trollish, but you'd probably learn much more about the world from Hanania's Twitter feed [1] and Substack [2] than you would from the entirety of content produced by the NY Times. Especially if you live inside a left-wing bubble.

He also has an upcoming book, which has a good chance of becoming a bestseller. [3][4]

Hopefully, all the pushes for cancelling him will trigger the Streisand effect. [5]
