Andrew Sullivan Leaves The Daily Beast

Andrew Sullivan reflects on his illustrious blogging career as he announces—via blog post, of course—that he and his Dish team are taking their show on the road. After 12 years and three major media outlets—most recently The Daily Beast—Sullivan and his two executive editors, Patrick Appel and Chris Bodenner, are breaking out on their own. The bloggers now make up the three-man independent company Dish Publishing LLC and, as of Feb. 1, can be found behind a metered paywall at their original URL, www.andrewsullivan.com. Their presence will surely be missed at The Beast.
