Kos will be an asset to Newsweek - but let's see how they "balance" his commentary.
November 13th, 2007 at 5:49 pmPretty cool stuff! Looks like the blogs are starting to get a little recognition.
November 13th, 2007 at 5:50 pmExcellent - it's about time we progressives had a viewpoint in the MSM!!
November 13th, 2007 at 5:51 pmLet's see, balance his commentary, mmmm, who would that be?
Maybe Bill 0 IQ would be a good choice for a big fat lieing piece of fascist brownstained pig to counter those darn liberal FACTS.
I mean Mr. Sexual Harrassment is so truthful and forthright, honest, moral, and a fine example of conservatives everywhere.
How do you use "falafel" in the shower Bill 0 IQ? You perv.

No way. Newsweek just marked themselves as "far left anti-Amrerican traitors" in BillO's pointy head.
November 13th, 2007 at 6:04 pmOutrageous! KOSmmunists given a national pedestal to spread lies! We must balance him out with 12 Jesus loving, God fearing Conservatives immediately or the nation will collapse.

Congrats Markos.
November 13th, 2007 at 6:04 pmMaybe Kos can talk about that misnomer, "conservative".
Keep them honest and call them by their correct names if that is what he will be up against: corporatists or fascists whatever.
November 13th, 2007 at 6:06 pmSalad days!
November 13th, 2007 at 6:45 pmtime to subscribe to newsweek!
November 13th, 2007 at 6:53 pmIsn't NewSpeak already chock full of facist, corporate sucking staff members who lean RePugniScum? Why do they need to hire another one just to handle Markos?
Good Luck Markos!!!
November 13th, 2007 at 7:07 pmMaybe Ben Domenech is available...
November 13th, 2007 at 8:03 pmdamn you, Anna Marie Cox! Damn you all to hell.
I mean, it was just a matter of time, wasn't it? I'll prepare for the worst and hopefully (like with Greenwald at Salon) I'll eat my words.
still, it seems to me that Markos is made for that world. now he can roll his eyes at Kucinich from a bed of roses. before you know it he'll be in the Daily Howler on a weekly basis.
like I said, I'm prepared for the worst.
November 13th, 2007 at 8:20 pmLet me guess, Newsweek will have a conservative and a neocon to balance out Kos...or you just wait, the right-wing noise machine will vent and spew its rage and Newsweek will rescind the offer.
November 13th, 2007 at 10:43 pmCongratulations!
November 14th, 2007 at 10:15 amMr. Markos Moulitsas!
Step into the light my boy. Let's see ya in the light. Oooooo, looks purty cute to me.
He was good on Bill Maher recently too.
