It’s from The Atlantic.

The Atlantic.....full of sewage, crabs and garbage.....it’s also the name of an ocean.

Some ESL geek at Yahoo screwed it up.

It means, “The archives of the Journ-o-list e-mail list are addictive like crack for lefties seeking gossip about their colleagues.”

Here the source:

Basically, it appears that the writer's assertion is that journalists are more concerned about whether they appeared on the journolist, rather than expressing any concern about the apparent collusion that happened.

Thus, the crack = addiction headline.

I think he took Journolist and made it possessive by adding an “apostrophe s” to the end then “decontracted” it into Journolist is.

In other words, the “Archive of the Journolist is Crack to Wonks”.

I thought it was a disparaging comment about Wonkette. ;-)
