When it comes to cancel Culture and creative wats to do it.

The right has experimented o and imposed their cancelling with Jim Crow and Fiscal Conservatism alike with NO substantial data that shows any improvements and therefore should be cancelled.

From the halls of Paneling.

I was there! When the group went to dinner, I even got to sit across from Krugthulhu himself! Plus, I also got to shoot the breeze with Spocko, before he got all Internet-famous!

In answer to your question, I noticed that if you click on each photo and view it in a separate web page, the names of the panelists are in the photo name. First photo, far left, is Philly columnist Will Bunch, for example. In the last photo, far right, the natty looking gentleman is the estimable Mr. Atrios (Duncan Black), for whose blog, Eschaton, this noble gathering was named. All the participants were (and many still are) disreputable, foul-mouthed lefty bloggers of note.

In the top picture that's Eric Boehlert in the middle, formerly of Media Matters. Very good media critic.
