MEDIA LOSER: Dinesh D'Souza Dinesh D'Souza, right-wing provocateur, has fallen quite far from his previous perch as a respected conservative author and commentator. He now almost exclusively makes headlines for either shockingly dumb comments, or shockingly nasty ones — like when he mocked the survivors of a school shooting or posted a meme depicting Michelle Obama as a man. And every time he makes one of those comments, people ask why he is still listed as a contributor for the National Review, a magazine he has not written for since 2009. Well ask no more, because Dinesh D’Souza has been officially scrubbed from the conservative mag’s website. Some Mediaite sleuthing found that D'Souza was scrubbed in August of last year, right around the time he launched a bizarre quest to convince Twitter that Thailand was actually pronounced "Thigh-land." That fight was waged in order to defend Donald Trump against the embarrassment of having mispronounced the country's name. An incredibly pathetic fight it was. |
