Race
As editor at The New Republic, Sullivan published excerpts from the 1994 book The Bell Curve, by Richard Herrnstein and Charles Murray. The book, which contains a chapter about IQ in society and public policy, argues that there are innate differences in intelligence among racial groups. [80] This view of an innate connection between race and intelligence is rejected by the majority of scientists.[81] [82] [83] [84] [85]
In a 2015 article in The New Republic, "The New Republic's Legacy on Race", Jeet Heer called Sullivan's decision an example of the magazine's "myopia on racial issues". [86] The importance of Sullivan to the popularization of The Bell Curve and race science was noted by Matthew Yglesias, who called Sullivan "the punditocracy's original champion of Murray's thinking on genetics", [87] Similarly, Gavin Evans wrote in The Guardian that Sullivan "was one of the loudest cheerleaders for The Bell Curve in 1994" and that he "returned to the fray in 2011, using his popular blog, The Dish, to promote the view that population groups had different innate potentials when it came to intelligence."[80]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wcupv3pz7ffmaj5vkjw5nawb/bafkreiammkrimqhy6yxh2stfmsc22q4zbamuqthkhh6xf5qyuon2crntle)
