Ezra Klein Life

Ezra Klein (born 1984) is an American journalist, blogger, and political analyst who co-founded Vox, where he is now editor-at-large.

He served as a writer and columnist for The Washington Post and as an associate editor of The American Prospect.

He has been working as a reporter and MSNBC contributor. He ran Wonkblog, a branded newspaper that featured his writing and the writing of other policy journalists at The Washington Post.

Health care and budget policy were among the topics covered in the blog.

Wonkbook, a policy primer, was published by e-mail and on his blog each morning. Klein co-founded Vox, a website for explanatory news owned by Vox Media, in January 2014.

He served as its editor-in-chief until September 2017, when he transitioned to his new role as editor-at-large.

Early life and education

Klein was raised in Irvine, California, by a Jewish family. Abel Klein, a Brazilian immigrant, is a mathematics professor at the University of California, Irvine; his mother is an artist. Klein attended University High School, where he was a struggling student, and graduated with a 2.2 GPA in 2002. Klein attended the University of California, Santa Cruz, for two years before transferring to the University of California, Los Angeles, where he graduated in 2005 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science. He attempted to write for City on a Hill Press while at UCSC, but was turned down. He said that school was never a good fit for him academically or socially.

Ezra Klein Career

Career

In 2003, Klein interned for the Washington Monthly in Washington, D.C., and served on Howard Dean's primary campaign in Vermont. "The media is as efficient and valuable an agent for reform as the legislative bodies, and I think it is where I'm happiest and most efficient," Klein said. He and Markos Moulitsas were two of the first bloggers to report from a political convention in California, especially Markos Moulitsas. Klein was one of several writers allegedly chastised by writer Lee Siegel in 2006 (posting as a sock puppet named sprezzatura).

Klein's blog migrated to The American Prospect full-time on December 10, 2007.

Steve Pearlstein, The Washington Post's veteran business columnist, caught Klein's prolific blogging. Pearlstein wrote, "I was blown away by how good he was—how much the child wrote—on so many topics." Pearlstein sent a sample of Klein's work to managing editor Raju Narisetti. A few weeks after Pearlstein's call, Washington Post foreign correspondent John Pomfret ordered Klein to have lunch with him and financial reporter Sandy Sugawara. Klein was hired by Narisetti to be the newspaper's first pure blogger on politics and economics. He began writing at the newspaper on May 18, 2009.

Klein became a columnist in May 2011, despite his previous work at The Washington Post and MSNBC.

Klein declared that he will not be leaving The Washington Post in January 2014 with the intention to launch a new media partnership with several other veteran journalists. Vox, the political website, was later identified as the new media venture. Klein had previously "proposed the establishment of a free, explanatory journalism website" with more than three dozen workers" and a monthly budget of more than US$10 million to remain at The Washington Post. Katharine Weymouth and Jeff Bezos, the current owner of the Post, did not make a counteroffer during talks.

Klein, editor-in-chief at Vox, later editor-at-large, and former reporter and editor of Wonkblog at The Washington Post, and later editor-in-chief. He has delivered regular commentary on MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show, Hardball with Chris Matthews, and Lawrence O'Donnell's Last Word. He is a former contributor to Countdown with Keith Olbermann. Klein was one of many expected to host MSNBC's yet-unidentified 8 p.m. prime-time show, which would replace The Ed Show, according to The Week magazine on March 14, 2013. All In with Chris Hayes was eventually full.

Klein, along with Sarah Kliff and Matt Yglesias, launched The Weeds, a Vox podcast of in-depth debates on public policy in October 2015. Klein also hosts the podcast The Ezra Klein Show. Klein is the executive producer of Vox's Explained, which premiered in 2018.

Klein, along with other journalists from Vox Media, launched the podcast Impeachment in October 2019. Klein joined the New York Times in 2020 and became one of the newspaper's opinion columnists in 2021. Klein was one of the most followed political writers among Biden administration journalists on Twitter, according to a review by British digital strategist Rob Blackie.

Klein wrote an article in The Washington Post in December 2009 stating that the United States has the highest population in the country. Senator Joe Lieberman "was going to cause the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people in order to correct an old electoral score," because Lieberman was "motivated to oppose health care reform in part due to liberal resentment of being defeated in the 2006 Connecticut Democratic Primary." Klein based his estimate on an Urban Institute study that found that 22,000 people died in 2006 because they were in need of health care. Jonah Goldberg of the National Review sluggishly called this article "silly claim." Klein's essay was described by Charles Lane, a Washington Post reporter, as a "outrageous smear." But E. J. Dionne, a Washington Post reporter, agreed with Klein's assertion that "Klein is correct that there isn't a shred of logic in Lieberman's resistance." Klein later regretted the phrasing and that his position was that, despite widespread coverage, the social determinants of health are still very important predictors of mortality, with older socioeconomic classes dying earlier than those with more wealth and education.

Klein founded "JournoList" in February 2007 for analyzing politics and the news media. Klein and restricted the forum's membership to "several hundred left-leaning bloggers, political journalists, magazine writers, policy wonks, and academics." JournoList messages were only meant to be designed and read by its members. Klein defended the forum, saying that it "ensures" that people feel safe giving off-the-cuff analysis and instant reactions." Joe Klein, a Time magazine columnist, and a member of JournoList, said the off-the-record forum was essential and could only be guaranteed by keeping these conversations private.

Blogger Mickey Kaus first announced JournoList on a blog post on July 27, 2007. However, the forum didn't receive much attention until March 17, 2009, when an article about Politico delved into the forum's details and the extent of its membership was published. The Politico article sparked controversy over JournoList's ethics and sparked concerns about the organisation's purpose. Mickey Kaus first public excerpt of a JournoList discussion appeared on his blog on March 26, 2009.

Jeffrey Toobin, Eric Alterman, Paul Krugman, Joe Klein, Matthew Yglesias, and Jonathan Chait were among JournoList members in addition to Ezra Klein.

Ezra Klein revealed on his Washington Post blog on June 25, 2010 that he would no longer be involved with the JournoList group. Following the public announcement of several of his JournoList emails regarding conservative media celebrities, fellow blogger Dave Weigel's resigning from the Post.

Klein had just justified excluding conservative Republicans from participating as "not about propagating ideology but rather preventing a demise into a flame war." The emphasis is on empiricism, not ideology."
