MORE FROM JOURNOLIST: Obama wins! And Journolisters rejoice. They seem to be planning for “epistemic closure.”

Spencer Ackerman: “Let?s just throw Ledeen against a wall. Or, pace Dr. Alterman, throw him through a plate glass window. I?ll bet a little spot of violence would shut him right the fuck up, as with most bullies.”

And Eric Alterman adds his own incisive analysis: “Fucking Nascar retards?”

Didn’t the “best and the brightest” used to be, I dunno, better and brighter?

UPDATE: Reader Elliott Davis emails: “The best part about Eric Alterman’s participation in Journolist is his authorship of What Liberal Media?: The Truth About Bias and the News.”

Heh. Indeed. You gotta love this. Thanks again, Ezra!
