Ferguson On Hitchens

"In the event, no hit-obit of any consequence appeared. What he got instead from the world of mainstream journalism was an outpouring of love and praise that was staggering in its dimensions."
Andrew Ferguson in a delayed post on Christopher Hitchens at Commentary magazine. Unlike seemingly most other people, I at least had criticism to make and a question to ask to which I - of course - received no reply.
