Career[edit]

Yglesias started blogging in early 2002, while still in college, focusing mainly on American politics and public policy issues, often approached from an abstract, philosophical perspective. Yglesias was a strong supporter of invading Iraq, Iran and North Korea, calling the countries on his blog 'evil' and stating that 'we should take them all out,' although he was critical of the term 'axis of evil.'[7][8] He later called his attitudes about the war a mistake.[9]

Yglesias joined the American Prospect as a writing fellow upon his graduation in 2003, subsequently becoming a staff writer. His posts appeared regularly on the magazine's collaborative weblog TAPPED.[10]

In July 2008, he announced that he would leave The Atlantic Monthly for the Center for American Progress where he wrote for its blog, ThinkProgress, because he missed 'the sense of collegiality that comes from working with like-minded colleagues on a shared enterprise' and thought he could 'help advance their mission.'[11] On November 21, 2011, he left ThinkProgress to work as a business and economics correspondent at Slate's Moneybox.[12][13]

On or before 2010, Yglesias coined the term 'pundit's fallacy' to denote 'the belief that what a politician needs to do to improve his or her political standing is do what the pundit wants substantively.'[14][15][16]

Andrew Sullivan, a fellow blogger, takes nominations on his blog for the Yglesias Award, an honor 'for writers, politicians, columnists or pundits who actually criticize their own side, make enemies among political allies, and generally risk something for the sake of saying what they believe.'[17][18]

Yglesias has stated that he voted for Mitt Romney when he ran for Governor of Massachusetts in 2002.[19]

Yglesias deleted his past Twitter feed in November 2018, after controversy over tweets which defended the motivation of protesters who gathered outside the house of Tucker Carlson. The tweets also expressed a lack of empathy for Carlson's wife, which caused outrage.[20][21][22]

Yglesias authored the political nonfiction book One Billion Americans: The Case for Thinking Bigger, released on September 15, 2020.[23] It was inspired by Doug Saunders' Maximum Canada.[24]

Vox[edit]

In February 2014, he left Slate and joined Vox Media to co-found Vox with Ezra Klein and Melissa Bell.[25] On November 13, 2020, Yglesias announced that he would no longer be writing for Vox.com.[26] Yglesias moved to Substack for editorial independence.[27]
