The Daily Telegraph is spending the entire week publishing its list of the Top 50 most influential television pundits. This is a delightful little scheme: The British newspaper will get the chattering class to visit its site everyday for at least the rest of the week as they scramble to see if they made it, with 10 more results printed each day.
But let's not kid ourselves: You know who's going to round out the top of the list, and they've got names like O'Reilly, Olbermann, and Hannity. Air America's Rachel Maddow kicks off the list at No. 50, the Times Paul Krugman is at No. 48, former B. Clinton press sec Dee Dee Myers is No. 39, WaPo columnist Eugene Robinson is No. 37, and colleague Howard Kurtz is No. 34. Sadly, we don't think Greg Gutfeld is gonna make it.

None of the talking heads pictured are my favorites.
