JournoList

Seems the liberal media does indeed have its own little support group and information hub where they can get their stories straight. It's called the JournoList . . . and it's not the first such meetingplace for lefties to get their spin aligned, but it is the current one.

(The rest of the time they seem to just quote Democrat talking points memos.)

“There is nothing comparable on the right. E-mail conversations among bloggers, journalists and experts on our side tend to be ad hoc,” Goldfarb said. “The JournoList thing always struck me as a little creepy.”

Kaus, too, has seemed put off by the whole idea, once talking on BloggingHeads about how the list “seems contrary to the spirit of the Web.”

“You don’t want to create a whole separate, like, private blog that only the elite bloggers can go into, and then what you present to the public is sort of the propaganda you’ve decided to go public with,” Kaus argued.
