About Oliver Willis
My name is Oliver Willis and here I will regularly offer up commentary on the media, politics and other topics, ideally without making too much of a fool of myself.
At the very least I will include at least one exclusive picture of my miniature dachshund, Kal-El, with each post.
My background is that I was one of the first political bloggers in the world, launching my site OliverWillis. com around 2000. I was part of the first group of bloggers to interview a president, Barack Obama, in 2010.
I was part of the team that launched Media Matters for America, where I spent 13 years reporting on conservative misinformation in the media.
