Joshua Micah Jesajan-Dorja Marshall (born February 15, 1969) is an American journalist and blogger[1] who founded Talking Points Memo.[2] A liberal, he currently presides over a network of progressive-oriented sites that operate under the TPM Media banner and average 400,000-page views every weekday[3] and 750,000 unique visitors every month.[4][5]

Marshall and his work have been profiled by The New York Times,[4] the Los Angeles Times,[6] the Financial Times,[7] National Public Radio,[8] The New York Times Magazine,[9] the Columbia Journalism Review,[3] Bill Moyers Journal,[10] and GQ.[11][12] Hendrik Hertzberg, a senior editor at The New Yorker, compared Marshall to the influential founders of Time magazine, saying: "Marshall is in the line of the great light-bulb-over-the-head editors. He's like Briton Hadden or Henry Luce. He's created something new."[3]
