    Should Ezra Klein Be Kicked Off Hardball?

    We’d have posted this earlier when our tipster first told us about this, but we tried to get 23-year-old Ezra Klein to comment on the issue. He wouldn’t, but apparently he’s telling others that it’s a joke. The question remains: Is it a good enough joke for NBC to keep paying him to appear on Tim Russert’s network as a political pundit?

    Also! What are he and Matthew Yglesias plotting, kids?

      That Twitter was, of course, supposed to be private, and I thought it was.

      I agree that it’s naive for Ezra to be angry this leaked.

      Welcome to age 23 — an age when most boneheads haven’t learned the fine art of being circumspect. But if he’s smart enough to be a “pundit” at 23, he should be smart enough to not do dumb stuff like this.

      I’m sorry, buckaroo. You’re on TV, you put crap like this on your Twitter, it’s going to end up online in a public venue.

      I grow weary of youthful stupidity. Who brings on 23-year-olds as pundits, anyway? Silly.

      Well, that sort of intellect & maturity level does explain his incessant need to have everyone else pay for his doctor bills (”but I thought it was free”.

      Grow up, punk.

    1. […] Twenty-three-year-old Ezra Klein is a staff writer at The American Prospect, has written for a number of self-important publications, and also regularly appears on MSNBC’s Hardball. Earlier this month, on his Twitter page, Klein added mocking NBC News mainstay Tim Russert to his superlatives: “Fuck Tim Russert. Fuck him with a spiky acid-tipped dick.” […]

    1. […] But for the time being those of us in new media have to keep in mind that Twitter is the new Youtube, which was the new blogging, which was the new leaked email, blah blah, blah blah, blah blah… - Ezra Klien can also attest to this. […]
