Writing in "The Nation" about what he describes as "a smear campaign" against Barack Obama, Ari Berman says "At the fulcrum of this effort is a little-known blogger from Northbrook, Illinois, named Ed Lasky, whose articles on AmericanThinker.com have done more than anything to give the smear campaign an air of respectability." [Berman, Ari. "Smearing Obama," "The Nation, March 31, 2008 [http://www.thenation.com/doc/20080331/berman] ] (Ed Lasky is a key editor of AT.)

Writing in the "New York Times", Felicity Barringer credited "American Thinker" with breaking the story that California was considering requiring programmable thermostats in private homes which could be controlled by officials in the event of power supply difficulties. In the resulting national controversy, California withdrew the proposed regulation [Barringer, Felicity. "California Seeks Thermostat Control," "New York Times", January 11, 2008 [http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/11/us/11control.html?] ]
