I also wish to congratulate Thomas Goodrich, whose first Counter-Currents piece (the first, we hope, of many) made our top ten.

January’s top articles include political commentary (gun control, Jews and HBD, Bloomberg), film and TV (Pulp Fiction, Scarface, American Psycho, Les Miserables, Django Unchained, The Dark Knight, Sons of Anarchy), history (Evola, Vinson, Goodrich, Beary), the media (both of Hamilton’s articles), political correctness (Bolton), and the arts (the Bowden interview).

Thanks to all of our writers!
