Saturday Morning (Journalism) Quarterback
The top five stories worth reading from this past week in worth-reading stories:
In America, right now,
11.1 million people are unemployed, and 8 million are underemployed.
Also this week, our the most important story the Boston Phoenix has ever published revolves around cryptids!
Alternet looks into the the long and bloody history of Israel and America. Salon says our mythical image of Israel blinds us to its faults and even neoconservatism has gone to die in Gaza.
The American Prospect looks into how George W broke the government, and Salon surveys the damage done. Also, big finance is laughing all the way to the bank. Is this the final report card on the Reagan years? The New York Times reports it's time to fight off the second great depression and Newsweek says markets can't govern themselves. This is the end of the financial world as we know it.
The Atlantic looks into the Founder's great mistake.
Finally (close your eyes, right-wing echo chamber) the end of white America?
