[edit] Ezra Klein

Ezra Klein (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non-notable blogger, no reliable sources. Corvus cornixtalk 02:37, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep, Notability now established. Kudos to Sting_au for digging up the sources! Redfarmer (talk) 03:23, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. --Kannie | talk 03:03, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • KEEP: Mr. Klein is more than just a blogger. Mr. Klein is now a staff writer at The American Prospect and is often seen as a commentator on television shows such as Hardball with Chris Matthews and Countdown with Keith Olbermann. He is a public heath expert these days and his latest article can be read HERE. I will work on adding to article and find additional sources. Too quick on the delete article move. ♦ Luigibob ♦ "Talk to Luigi!" 03:11, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - Looks like I made a major boo boo with the delete! Changed my vote after a Google News search here. Plenty of hits, New York Times , CBS etc. Looks notable - prominent journalist. Sting_au Talk 03:17, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
    • I still don't see anything that makes him notable. Corvus cornixtalk 04:43, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep, Klein is not just liked by bloggers but has received notice from the likes of Paul Krugman. Adding non-primary sources. --Dhartung | Talk 07:11, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep, but get rid of the sources that are just blogs. There are enough non-blog sources to indicate notability. Lankiveil (talk) 07:30, 12 January 2008 (UTC).
  • Keep - Google News search provides plenty of sources. Klein has also written multiple op-ed columns for the Los Angeles Times, which is further evidence of notability. JavaTenor (talk) 20:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - Ezra is the real thing, he writes Op-Eds for the LA Times. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheatreKid01 (talk • contribs) 19:59, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
