Saturday Morning (Journalism) Quarterback
The top five stories worth reading from this past week in worth-reading stories:
In grotesque pollution news, the Center For Public Integrity had its startling report on pollution in the Great lakes stifled by the Bush administration. And, the Independent reports on a mass of garbage floating from Japan to Hawaii.
This one comes via Marcus: the Mormon faith has a new and, well, unique, take on Bigfoot.
Slate magazine takes a look at the dilemma facing writers and editors when it comes to unpublished manuscripts.
In economic news, Think Progress examines Bush's tragic, record setting budget proposal. The Campaign For America's Future follows suit, as does Alternet in a series of stories. The Nation wraps things up with a column by Robert Klein.
Finally this week, a new book discusses the struggle journalists in Iraq face when it comes to censorship.
