Lasky, E
<div id="articleBody" style=" text-align: left;">
<p><b>Mr. Lasky, who serves as American Thinker’s news editor</b>, said he was simply putting the research skills he learned at <a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/n/northwestern_university/index.html?inline=nyt-org" title="More articles about Northwestern University">Northwestern University</a> to good use, and doing what he felt the mainstream news media would not do: give the president and his positions a proper and honest vetting.
Mr. Lasky started The American Thinker in 2003 with Mr. Baehr and Thomas Lifson, a Berkeley, Calif., sociologist and business adviser. The site has become a major force in national conservative circles, attracting 1.2 million unique visitors a month, Mr. Lasky said.</p>
