DSA in The New Yorker

From an October print issue of The New Yorker, I read "How the D.S.A. Learned to Love Elections" by Benjamin Wallace-Wells" as well as "The Secret History of Lee Krasner and Jackson Pollock" by Zachary Fine. I began but did not complete the book review of Chad Harbach's The Brightness. I wonder if anyone at The New Yorker and The New York Times fears litigation insinuating collusion with Big Five publishing or if they presume that there is so little interest in literary fiction that no one will care about their antidemocratic book-reviewing practices. An interesting aspect of the DSA article is that Wallace-Wells makes it clear that within the Democratic Socialists of America there is disagreement on core beliefs and diversity of opinion we also see in the current versions of the Republican and Democratic Parties.
