Openness and transparency, yadda, yadda...

Politico:

For the past two years, several hundred left-leaning bloggers, political reporters, magazine writers, policy wonks and academics have talked stories and compared notes in an off-the-record online meeting space called JournoList.
...
...it’s hard to trace JList’s influence in the media, because so few JListers are willing to talk on the record about it.
...
One byproduct of that secrecy: For all its high-profile membership — which includes Nobel Prize-winning columnist Paul Krugman; staffers from Newsweek, POLITICO, Huffington Post, The New Republic, The Nation and The New Yorker; policy wonks, academics and bloggers such as Klein and Matthew Yglesias — JList itself has received almost no attention from the media.

You’d think that some public-spirited soul would have dumped the entire archive to Wikileaks by now.

Oh wait, that’s only for right-wing conspiracies.
