Atrios Revealed
 |
James Joyner | Tuesday, July 27, 2004 |
Via Kevin Drum, I see that the psedononymous “Atrios” of the popular lefty bog Eschaton has finally revealed that he is Duncan Black, an economist now a Senior Fellow at Media Matters for America. The need for a leftist economist to hide his identity remains unclear, however.
Update: Rob Tagorda reacts and reminds us why he dropped his old pseduonym last August.
About the Author: James Joyner is the publisher of Outside the Beltway and the managing editor of the Atlantic Council. He's a former Army officer, Desert Storm vet, and college professor with a PhD in political science from The University of Alabama. He lives just outside the Beltway in Alexandria, Virginia.

Maybe because he writes like an angry college student. Certainly the stuff he puts out doesn't typically read like anyone who would have the title "Senior Fellow" attached to it.
Although I will say that "Duncan Black" is a pretty cool name.
He will always be "Hatrios" to me.....
