tejek's Ezra Klein frequently provides political commentary on MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann and The Rachel Maddow Show. LOL

Ezra Klein was the founder of JournoList--the leftwing media members group that planned how to make Obama president and how to protect him and plan organized attacks on anyone who opposed him or wrote anything negative about him. The internal communications of these leftwing media stooges (who purported to "unbiased" and "non-partisan" at the same time when they presented themselves and their "writing" to the public) was exposed and Klein dissolved the leftwing attack group. Below is a cut and paste from the leftwing wikipedia: In February 2007 Ezra Klein created a Google Groups forum called "JournoList" for discussing politics and the news media. The forum's membership was controlled by Klein and limited to "several hundred left-leaning bloggers, political reporters, magazine writers, policy wonks and academics."[16] Posts within JournoList were intended only to be made and read by its members.[17] Klein defended the forum saying that it "[ensures] that folks feel safe giving off-the-cuff analysis and instant reactions". JournoList member, and Time magazine columnist, Joe Klein added that the off-the-record nature of the forum was necessary because “candor is essential and can only be guaranteed by keeping these conversations private”.[16] The existence of JournoList was first publicly revealed in a July 27, 2007 blog post by blogger Mickey Kaus.[18] However, the forum did not attract serious attention until March 17, 2009 when an article was published on Politico that detailed the nature of the forum and the extent of its membership.[16] The Politico article set off debate within the Blogosphere over the ethics of participating in JournoList and raised questions about its overall purpose. The first public excerpt of a discussion within JournoList was posted by Mickey Kaus on his blog on March 26, 2009.[19] Members of JournoList included, among others: Ezra Klein, Jeffrey Toobin, Eric Alterman, Paul Krugman, Joe Klein (no relation to Ezra Klein), Matthew Yglesias, and Jonathan Chait. On June 25, 2010, Ezra Klein announced in his Washington Post blog that he would be terminating the Journolist group. This decision was instigated by fellow blogger Dave Weigel's resignation from the Post following the public exposure of several of his Journolist emails about conservative media figures.[20][21]
