As much as Jon makes me howl with laughter, if the character he plays is just now getting a handle on this...well, now THAT'S funny!

That's a bit stickier. In terms of newspapers, there's The Guardian in the UK, but the opinion is that of late it is more center than left. God knows if there is an American equivalent.

I second the Guardian. I don’t care what you think about Glenn Greenwald, he’s led the best discussion of the AP wiretapping. Here’s a link. The second link is to the Q and A where many intelligent questions are asked and Greenwald answers ten to twenty. Within the Q and A answers, the 3rd link takes you to a remembrance of David Halberstam.

As for an American equivalent, you'd have to get in the way machine.

Welcome to Rupert Murdock's WSJ -- devoid of credibility since 2007®.

Ah, yes. But thank heavens we have the Grey Lady to report the facts - on page 11. And the political spin - on the Front Page.

American Thinker and American Conservative seem to do a good job, blogwise. TV news is lost and not worth the time and newspapers are quickly following suit. Thank the Maker (and EJ!) for iTulip and this forum.
