Bet for the top story of 2010 being the Internet Revolution. The next two to three years are when we are going to see the Internet become what we all thought it would be.

Is Journalism Going Through Its Own Reformation?

Alexander Howard | Posted 12.01.2009 | Media


Alexander Howard

The traditional "high priests of journalism" -- newspaper and magazine editors -- controlled what was covered. No more, or at least not in online news.

Of all things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving -- I'm thankful that challenging the government's course and trying to put better ideas on the table are unabashedly patriotic again.

Steve Clemons | Posted 11.25.2009 | Politics

The White House released the list of those attending the State Dinner honoring India Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. But it's not just India's night -- there are a lot of folks that could push other agendas in Obama Land.

Washington: Totally Disconnected From Main Street

Don McNay | Posted 11.24.2009 | Business


Don McNay

Operating a business on Main Street is a lot different than lecturing at the Harvard Economic Club. The team Obama surrounded himself with has spent way more time in a faculty lounge than in the corner barber shop.

Sunday Roundup

Arianna Huffington | Posted 11.22.2009 | Media


Arianna Huffington

Misrepresenting what I said during an appearance on Countdown this week, NewsBusters claims that I'm trying to deny Glenn Beck his "constitutionally protected free speech." Wrong. What I said is that words have tremendous power -- they can inspire and they can incite. There's a reason you can't shout "fire" in a crowded theater. But even though Glenn Beck is shouting "fire" in a crowded, anxious country, I specifically said that the right response to his steady stream of lies, hate, and race-baiting -- all served up with a not-very-subtle undercurrent of violence -- is to put unrelenting pressure on his advertisers and his bosses. Pressure works. CNN dropped Lou Dobbs. I'm actually of two minds when it comes to Beck. Part of me resents spending even a second of my life thinking about him. But part of me recognizes that he's too dangerous to ignore.

America is home to 1.3 million homeless children, over 12,000 of them in Los Angeles county alone. It's time to stop attributing this problem to irresponsibility and start attacking the source.

The Right Campaign Metrics for Obama's Promises and Performance

Ari Melber | Posted 11.04.2009 | Politics


Ari Melber

Even as the results from actual, live campaigns in Virginia and New Jersey roll in, the political and media establishment is fixated on the anniversary of Obama's election.

Obama Was Never a Revolutionary

John McQuaid | Posted 11.04.2009 | Politics


John McQuaid

There was never going to be a revolution. Obama ran on change, but he's always been a centrist and an institutionalist. He believes in making things work, in practical results; not starting from scratch.

Obama Is Timid Because Progressives Are Timid

Aaron Belkin | Posted 11.04.2009 | Politics


Aaron Belkin

What can we expect from a President who presides over a relatively conservative public, whose party is fractured by a fundamental contradiction, and whose legislative agenda is held hostage by Ben Nelson?

Candidate Obama Might Have Some Questions for President Obama

Mitchell Bard | Posted 11.04.2009 | Politics


Mitchell Bard

Coming off the election, the president had enormous political capital (really a blank check to move forward with anything he campaigned for), and I can't help thinking that he didn't make enough use of it.
