Which journos met with Netanyahu?

In Politico, here

"Yesterday, I reported that Netanyahu was meeting with some top foreign policy writers a few hours after sitting down with Obama.

However, I could only confirm a couple attendees at the time. And while the Israeli embassy confirmed a meeting was taking place, they would only say that "senior American journalists" would be in attendance. Well, the embassy was correct on that one.  

Now I've heard some more of the big name journalists who met with the Israeli Prime Minister on Monday:  George Stephanopoulos (ABC), Chris Wallace (Fox News), Jeffrey Goldberg (The Atlantic), David Brooks (New York Times), Bill Kristol (Weekly Standard), Clarence Page (Chicago Tribune), and Doyle McManus (Los Angeles Times). 

There was also a crew from the Washington Post: Jackson Diehl, Jim Hoagland, David Ignatius and Charles Krauthammer.

The groundrules for the roughly hour-long meeting at Blair House were not explicity off the record, but more similar that of a background briefing."
