We Wish Him Well
Web publishing is losing one of its real pioneers. Michael Kinsley announced today that he is stepping down as editor of Slate magazine.

Kinlsey was hired away from CNN in 1995, and he made then almost unheard move from Washington, DC to Washington state. Many of the magazine’s features have become staples of the blogospere and the web as a whole. I appreciate his work, even on Crossfire, because Kinsley is never (well, almost never) a knee-jerk left-liberal.

I hope Slate can keep innovating without him.
