Gang of 500
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gang of 500 refers to political insiders and journalists who influence the daily media narrative in US politics. About ten percent of the Gang of 500 is made up of political journalists.
The term was coined by Mark Halperin in ABC News' The Note, as "campaign consultants, strategists, pollsters, pundits, and journalists who make up the modern-day political establishment" [1]. They are "the 500 people whose decisions matter to the political news and campaign narrative we get from the major media" [2].
