Sirota’s Hostile Takeover (2006) was reviewed by The New York Times critic Tobin Harshaw who described Sirota as a “Montana-based blogger with a take-no-prisoners mind-set” with “an admirably organized mind”. Harshaw applauded some Sirota suggestions as “admirably specific, occasionally realistic and arguably on the side of the angels” and capable of bipartisan support, such as his recommendations for “regulating malpractice insurance for doctors … restoring state control over class-action laws … (and) forcing chief executives to certify corporate tax returns so they face liability for fraud.” He felt Sirota was critical of “mainstream Democratic centrists”. Harshaw criticized the writing style as “cliched” and “oppressive” and too lengthy and needing an editor, but admitted Sirota presented a “creditable analysis.”

In May 2006, Random House’s Crown Publishers released Sirota’s book Hostile Takeover. The first chapter of the book was published in The New York Times in July 2006.

There was controversy in Washington, D.C., in 2007 about whether Sirota was a “journalist” or an “activist”. While the Washington press corps tends to see him as an “activist”, at one point he was criticized for skirting the rules about access to Congress, which would on some occasions deny activists access, by getting a “temporary intern’s ID”; this gave him access to the Senate chamber, but he was criticized in The Washington Post afterwards. He was described as having “pulled an end-run around the press galleries.” Sirota denied he got “special access” and that such a claim was “just bizarre.” He added: “I think a lot of reporters on the Hill want to monopolize access to our government as a way to preserve their monopoly on news I guess.” Some analysts observed that conservative journalists were activists as well; one noted “(Weekly Standard columnist) Fred Barnes has credentials, he espouses political views.”

In 2003 Newsweek profiled Sirota as a “political operative” skilled at “hacking out a daily barrage of anti-Bush media clips, commentary, and snappy quotes” who made “guerrilla attacks on the Bush administration” and who was “well schooled in the art of Washington warfare.” According to the article, Sirota’s main weapons were computer emails. Sirota was described as the “Internet child of the Clinton War Room generation.” Former Clinton White House chief of staff John Podesta said of Sirota: “I just saw he had an eye for critique and the instinct for the jugular.” For example, Sirota unearthed a two-year-old comment which Colin Powell had made to the effect that “Iraq posed no threat to its neighbors, and possessed no ‘significant capability’ in weapons of mass destruction.” Sirota made Powell’s statements more widely known. Reporters pounced, and it became a public relations blow to the Bush administration. Sirota was credited with having revealed that $87 billion for Iraq could have been used to erase huge state deficits at home, a fact that was repeated by Democrats nationwide.

Sirota was a contributor to OpenLeft, a now-defunct progressive political blog. In June 2007, he replaced the late progressive columnist Molly Ivins with a column to be syndicated nationally by Creators Syndicate. Sirota became a contributing writer for Salon in May 2011.
