Myanmar In Crisis After Deadly Cyclone

Why The 'Right' Gets Net Neutrality Wrong

"the red on white should be for specific and brief emphasis."

huh? oh i get it. i switched on ietab in Firefox and there it is .. actually looks like a CSS error - doesn't look deliberate.

switch to Firefox (with ad-ons). makes web browsing several million times easier ... posted 05/05/2008 at 14:19:01

MSNBC Admits Wright Soundbytes Misrepresents His Message, Then Do It Anyway

commenting as a 'European friend' ...

'yes we can!' (did) 'Stop being offended by the TRUTH!'

the BBC has been beating itself up about it's failure to ask questions before the war for YEARS, the rest of Yurp was there, already. the new york times et al have STILL not apologised.

perhaps you need, gasp, some sort of 'socialialised' media and not just PBS (on which I can hear Wright, unfiltered) supported by chickenfeed. just a friendly suggestion ... posted 04/28/2008 at 19:19:11

I'm waiting to see how he handles it when he gets the 'we think you're sexy' comment from The Advocate. Great test that one :} posted 03/28/2008 at 16:54:40

Free Ride: Inside The Media's Love Affair With McCain

There was an amazing story about how McCain has snubbed the Vietnamese peasant who saved his life in - of all places - the major right-wing UK tabloid the Daily Mail > http://www.mailonsunday.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=542277&in_page_id=1811

I'm still not sure what the Mail's motives were precisely because they are right-wing and they appear to have thrown resources into it and it's pretty watertight how it's written and sourced but I'm amazed it hasn't been picked up by liberal US blogs.

it also says "his refusal to acknowledge his [rescuer's] heroism is likely to fuel other, more damaging allegations that McCain exaggerated elements of his PoW ordeal in Hoa Lo prison." And then quotes a Vietnamese official from the time that McCain had "softer treatment" in captivity because "he was the son of an American admiral".

I can understand why the MSM would ignore this story, but Liberal blogs? posted 03/25/2008 at 18:24:18

O'Reilly Attends Easter Services At Church Led by Ex-Nazi

It's not 'scientists in Australia'. It's one woman who works for a right-wing think tank. Look it up. posted 03/25/2008 at 17:48:45
