Ballroom???

I'm reasonably sure this fledgling reporter just used the wrong word, but he describes a meeting of YP4 -- "a project of the People for the American Way Foundation" -- as having taken place in "the ballroom of the National Education Association's DC headquarters."

I don't know if NEA HQ has a ballroom, but nothing would surprise me. I know they have ba---, oh, never mind, it's a bad joke.

The account of the meeting is worth reading for its view of American politics, the media and the blogosphere. It was part of "a three-day national summit designed to instruct and inspire the next generation of progressive leaders, and give them the organizational tools they need to succeed."

I don't know if it overlapped with the monthly meeting of the Communist Party USA.
