The Dish At Ten: Matt Yglesias

Yglesias's contribution:

I know this has a bit of an air of “village” circle jerk to it, but I think [Andrew's] very un-village integrity is underscored by the fact that literally the first time I met him was over lunch when he was recruiting me to join the Atlantic. Part of the essence of village dysfunction is that it’s extremely unusual to get assistance in moving up the professional ladder from someone who you’re not tied into through some kind of crony network and the world would be a better place if more people had his kind of approach to such matters.
