A note for our readers

Hey --

Another Sunday.



First up, we thank all who participated this edition which includes Dallas and the following:

The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.


And what did we come up with?

Conor of The Atlantic.
Another truest for Glen Ford. 
The US government really picks some losers, doesn't it?
Ava and C.I. offer a look at the media in a variety of forms.  (I could say a lot more but everyone's tired and wanting to crash and Dona said, "Jim, make it brief.")
This is a really great feature.  I didn't have a lot of faith in it being that, to be honest.  We'd contacted both Ms. and Women's Media Center and both didn't offer an official statement.  So I felt like this issue would be a waste.  I'm glad I was wrong.

Jess turned in this rare solo piece.  Don't you wish he'd offer a solo article more often.  (His last one was back in March.)

Has Pringles got a low-cal chip for you.

It's enough to make you roll your eyes.

It's rare when someone unknowingly but convincingly provides an indictment against their own industry.

A respot of a press release from Ros-Lehtinen's office.

A repost from Workers World.

Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.

Again, Dona asked me to keep it brief.


  Peace.
