Congratulations to Bob Cox and the Media Bloggers Association for setting up a deal with Newsweek.com. As far as Newsweek.com goes, this seems like a smart move that will bring in voices from across the political spectrum and add value to Newsweek.com's election coverage.

(NEW YORK) Media Bloggers Association (MBA) and Newsweek have launched "The Ruckus," a new group blog about politics for Newsweek.com.
