Less than one week after dropping John Derbyshire after he wrote a racially inflammatory post for an unrelated online publication, the National Review has had to let another contributor go over racist comments.

University of Illinois professor emeritus Robert Weissberg has been dropped from the roster of conservative commentators on the rolls at National Review. According to editor Rich Lowry, the editorial staff at NR became aware of a “noxious talk about the future of white nationalism,” and was forced to take action.
Unbeknownst to us, occasional Phi Beta Cons contributor Robert Weissberg (whose book was published a few years ago by Transaction) participated in an American Renaissance conference where he delivered a noxious talk about the future of white nationalism. He will no longer be posting here. Thanks to those who brought it to our attention.
