He is a committed liberal bomb thrower that thrives on the attention people give him. Kind of like the liberal Ann Coulter.
"liberal" Ann Coulter?
I'm suspecting the liberal version is what was meant. Two sides of the same coin and what not. Being a political shock jock is certainly profitable.
there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of opportunity as a liberal though.. hate krugman if you like, but at least he's not a glen beck or rush limbaugh. i can't think of any other liberal who is worse than krugman too.
