List of sites we're hosting at Berkman ranked by hits, either today or all-time. Comment here.  Bill Moyers: "I put the flag in my lapel tonight." BBC: "The World Health Organisation expert who first identified the mystery pneumonia that has claimed dozens of lives has himself died of the disease, the UN agency has announced." AP: "A suicide bomber killed five Americans in an attack Saturday north of the city of Najaf." NYT and BBC reports. The Times reports on a Columbia University anthropology professor "who said at a campus antiwar teach-in Wednesday night that he hoped to see 'a million Mogadishus' -- referring to the city in Somalia where American soldiers were ambushed in a lethal firefight in 1993." Interesting that the Times reports this as a denunciation of the professor's remarks. Why not just report it as two stories. Why does the president of Columbia get the headline? An update to last night's doctrine. "It's time to stick the tail between the legs and get the fuck out of there folks. This doesn't smell good." BlogShares is a "fantasy stock market for weblogs." Scripting News is an attractive buy at $14.08 per share.  Megnut gave a keynote in Illinois. Neat! Welcome to Wendy Seltzer and her new weblog. NY Times: "The most influential antiwar coalitions have shifted away from large-scale disruptive tactics and stepped up efforts to appeal to mainstream Americans."  I just heard that Henry Norr, who I've known for almost 20 years, has been suspended from the San Francisco Chronicle because of his anti-war views. There are quite a few articles about this. "I don't write about national affairs, I don't write about national politics, I write about things like spam," Norr said in an interview. "To me, in any normal understanding of what is a conflict of interest, I didn't have one." Christopher Lydon reviews the "great writers who anticipated the contemporary crisis."  |
