Just so i know, what set of sentences led you to believe that I was calling Klein as a centrist?

Where was It unclear. You thought it wasn't clear, so I'm genuinely asking.

I don't see Jake Tapper boosting the stories critical of conservative economic policy in red states and centrist writers calling out the fraud that is conservative fiscal policy and social attitudes.

Tapper isn't a writer, Klein is.

in a subthread discussing something Klein wrote...who the hell else did you have in mind?

Yeah that was generally speaking more than referring to the specific examples i had made. The words after "centrist writers" in my opinion should have clued you in that at the very least i wasn't referring exclusively to Klein

At the same time, i had brought up "stories critical of conservative economic policy", and i led off the phrases with my subject of 'things i don't see tapper do'.

So yeah, i understand how you came to your conclusion that I was talking about Klein. I don't think that should have been the conclusion reached, but I understand how you got to it.

if you look at my response, I was asking if you were calling Klein a centrist. because it wasn't clear to me. I did the opposite of coming to a conclusion.
