I respect his point of view, but Wick Allison hardly represents the conservative movement. He was publisher, not editor of NR for 3 years and he's been gone awhile.
>>Allison co-founded D Magazine, the city magazine of Dallas-Fort Worth, in 1974, with backing from Dallas investor Ray Hunt. In 1981, he and a group of investors purchased Sport Magazine, which they sold in 1984. He went on to found and publish Art & Antiques Magazine in 1984. In 1985, Allison was asked by William F. Buckley, Jr. to join the board of directors of the National Review, and in 1990 he became its publisher, succeeding William A. Rusher. In 1991 or 1992 Allison sold his company Allison Publications, publisher of Art & Antiques. In 1993, he resigned as publisher of National Review. In 1995, he and investor Harlan Crow repurchased D Magazine, and in 2001, Allison bought out Crow to become the magazine company's sole owner. In 1993, Allison edited a new edition of "The Bible To Be Read As Living Literature," published by Simon & Schuster. He is also the author of "Is That In The Bible?" (Dell, 1992)and "Condemned To Repeat It: History Lessons For Leaders" (Viking Penguin, 1998).
