WEST COAST PUNDITS
Over at The Volokh Conspiracy, Jacob Levy suggests that I should be pleased that NPR, in conjunction with Slate, has launched a lunchtime show that breaks the East Coast pundit monopoly. I am, in theory (though Slate is as Bos-Wash as the West Coast gets). I'd be more pleased if the show's website knew those pundits' names. It's Karen Grigsby Bates. Gates is a guy somehow connected to Slate.
But wait, there's more: Over on this page, they promise interviews from the famous L.A.-based blogger Mikey Kaus. They also spell Will Saletan's last name as Salatan.
