WOW, 20 years. TWENTY! A very, very Happy 20th (TWENTIETH!) anniversary to Josh Marshall and Talking Points Memo. A tremendous accomplishment. I’m not an Internet historian by any means, but I just did some quick research and I’m pretty sure that www.talkingpointsmemo.com is literally the only website from the year 2000 that still exists.
Fun read! Thanks for your work Ben. Loved TPMtv, especially the day in 100 seconds. Truly a highlight of my day, back then. Yours and Vic Berger’s contemporary works sustain me today. Cheers
Loved the Day in 100 Seconds but I can’t imagine watching cable news all day and then splicing together bits was good for anyone’s mental health. It did help me swear off cable news though.
