Them’s Fightin’ Words
If I have bolstered Yglesias’s reputation in a way that advances his career, I’m glad to have helped. I think he’s the best blogger there is and entirely deserving of the breathtaking success he has enjoyed. But, given his astonishing success–a large base of readers, a job with The Atlantic, a book contract, all before his 26th birthday–it is odd that Yglesias believes the incentive structure of political journalism punishes his ideology. How much higher does he think he should have risen? ~Jonathan Chait
