If you’ve ever wondered who Matt Yglesias has in mind when he crafts his white-hot Vox takes, wonder no more. Here it is, straight from the jackass’ mouth:
At Vox I think the implied audience is a graduate of or student at a selective colleges (which also describes the staff and our social peers), and if you assigned me the job of serving a less-educated audience is probably need to think about how to change things up.

Think I’d prob make sure my post about my elevated writing style wasn’t rendered gibberish by typos, but maybe that’s just a public school quirk

I love the irony of his almost unintelligible post to describe how learned he and his audience both are.

It warms my heart to see someone so smug and yet so incoherent.

Fellow Harvard boy and incoherent tweeter David Hogg will be a worthy successor to Matt Yglesias.
