Ezra Klein is the poster child.
As the founder of the disingenous activist "Journolist" Ezra Klein was just 22 (!!) when he kicked it off in 2005.
So now this "genius" journalism/polisci grad, full of life-long wisdom (not) is 26 and has helped dishonestly elect a bogus potus. Isn't it nice that the child Ezra decided to cram his world-wise ways and extensive years of life lessons down our throats?
I've said all along, these snot-nosed INFANTS right out of journalism school, full of nonsensical "change-the-world" activism put into their heads by constipated, radical, stale liberal/marxist professors--are a real hazard as far as the public actually getting the real "news".
This is the brat generation, know-it-all academic pedantics--de riguer that they are LIBERAL as is their fashion...so they can "hang" with the dysfunctional, brain impaired, narcissistic celeb set.
A most revolting phenomenon.
From Wikipedia:
Klein was born in Irvine, California, where he attended University High School. He attended the University of California, Santa Cruz but later transferred to the University of California, Los Angeles, from which he graduated in 2005 with a B.A. in political science.
Klein started his first blog in February 2003.[3] He soon joined with Matt Singer, and the name was changed to "Klein/Singer: Political Consulting on the Cheap." In June 2003, he moved to the blog "Not Geniuses" along with Matt Singer, Ryan J. Davis, and Joe Rospars.[4]
Following "Not Geniuses," Klein partnered with Jesse Taylor at Pandagon. This partnership helped Klein gain even more visibility, leading to his eventual founding of his blog "Ezra Klein."[5] On December 10, 2007, Klein moved his blog full time to the American Prospect.[6] On May 18, 2009, he began writing at the Washington Post.[7]
Besides his online contributions, Klein worked on Howard Dean's primary campaign in Vermont in 2003, and interned for the Washington Monthly in Washington, D.C. in 2004.
In 2003, he and Markos Moulitsas were two of the earliest bloggers to report from a political convention, that of the California State Democratic Party.[8] In 2006, Klein was one of several writers pseudonymously flamed by The New Republic writer Lee Siegel (posting as a sock puppet called sprezzatura).[9] His writing interests include health policy, the labor movement, and electoral politics. Klein was raised Jewish.[10] In December 2009, Klein wrote an article in the Washington Post that because Senator Joe Lieberman was motivated to oppose health care legislation in part out of resentment at liberals for being defeated in the 2006 Connecticut Democratic Primary, it meant that Lieberman was "willing to cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people in order to settle an old electoral score".[11] Klein based his estimate off of an Urban Institute report that estimated that 22,000 people died in 2006 because they lacked health-care insurance.[12] This article was criticized by Jonah Goldberg of the National Review, calling it a "silly claim."[13] Charles Lane, also of the Washington Post, described Klein's article as an "outrageous smear". But EJ Dionne, also of the Washington Post, agreed with Klein's claim, saying that "Klein is right that there is not a shred of principle in Lieberman's opposition."[14] Klein is dating Annie Lowrey, an economics reporter at the Washington Independent.[15]
But he does have a degree! (heavy sarcasm)
What’s the (sic) for?
The more I look at this guy, I see a “red diaper baby”. Journalism school merely gave him the skills to become a good propagandist.
They aren’t children, they aren’t brats.
They are evil nasty anti American losers.
A couple punches to the face and the wuss will go away.
Besides his online contributions, Klein worked on Howard Dean’s primary campaign in Vermont in 2003
That says it all right there
The losers have learned NO world history, but are convinced they know everything.
Little do they realize that there could be a gulag in their future.
Yup. These are the snarky little whiners who have never put a hammer to a nail and would be screaming for mommy if someone took away their latte.
Because Errza Klein is (sick).
