Congrats to TPM Staff

As you know, we’ve been hiring here at TPM. And we’ve got some further expansion plans we’ll be announcing shortly. But I wanted to take a moment to congratulate our whole growing staff here at TPM in New York and Washington. Our audience continues to grow and at a quickening pace. The first quarter of 2011 was the best traffic quarter in the site’s history. And March 2011 was our top non-election month to date (2.65 million unique visitors). A lot of variables play in to that. But the overwhelming and irreplaceable factor is a hard-working, smart and hungry staff of reporters, editors and publishing staffers working together to break stories, get the news right and fast and just deliver, day after day.
