TV is ...
Somebody else who thinks that TV is one of the biggest sources of evil in our society today. A truly awsome rant, courtesy of Jeremey Zawodny.
Maybe this is a good time to put in a plug for the TV Turn-off Network. They are looking for a program director. It sounds like a typical non-profit job -- work long hours for little pay and do good. Maybe somebody reading this would be interested in the job? Or contributing?

Joe Conason off to a good start at Salon
Salon Magazine (recommended) recently hired Joe Conason to do a daily political blog, and Joe is off to a good start. I love people who can write with an edge -- I wish I could do it. Read this:
"When George Bush talks, people listen -- and sell. When Bush stopped talking for a few hours, the market eventually rallied, although not quite enough to erase the sickening 439-point plunge that followed his speech. Listening to the president dish out platitudes in Alabama could make any intelligent American despair. He still boasts about his tax cuts, and complains about the inheritance tax, with considerably more conviction than he can muster when he finally mentions corporate corruption. He still talks about reining in the trial lawyers, as if they're somehow to blame for the drifting economy." More
Go Joe Go.
