Wonkblog

Wonkblog is a blog, hosted by the Washington Post,[1] that is dedicated to domestic policy, economics and politics.[2][3] It was started by Ezra Klein, originally as a solo venture, but, by February 2013, had grown to employ a staff of five people. The Post originally rebuffed his attempts to persuade them to support Wonkblog.[4] On January 21, 2014, it was announced that Klein would leave Wonkblog, along with two of his colleagues: Melissa Bell and Dylan Matthews.[4] In 2014, Wonkblog hired Matt O'Brien as its lead economic policy writer.[1]
