Lizzy and Maegan like to think it's possible for progressives and conservatives to move America forward by focusing on issues we can agree on. They often team up on Blog Talk Radio, Twitter and HuffPost to give constructive, solution-oriented commentary to politicos from both parties.

Elizabeth "Media Lizzy" Blackney brings a fresh, next generation perspective and is informed by more than a dozen years of working closely with news makers, opinion leaders, and industry icons. As the Political Director for BlogTalkRadio, she anchors the the AOL Hot Seat daily show, Heading Right Radio, and The Media Lizzy Show. She is an entrepreneur, mother, activist and Republican pundit. She supports ONE, the full funding of the Millennium Development Goals and digs all things French, the Dave Matthews Band, and the US Marines. A lot.
