One of the largest issues with mainstream media is that they have to be ever so mindful of the people who pay their salaries, the advertisers. And I find that unfortunate as it tends to lead them to show some bias or cater to the broader audience in attempt to garner clicks or viewers.

On another note, I wish they would give us SWU's for 2009, as I have well over 100k EQM's this year. |

Oh really?!
Former TSA Administrator Kip Hawley said the document is not something a security agency would want to inadvertently post online, but he said it's not a road map for terrorists. "Hyperventilating that this is a breach of security that's going to endanger the public is flat wrong," Hawley said. |

Anyone wish to make a bet that next year, at some point they'll likely offer some extra SWUs at some target above 100,000 EQMs and/or 120 EQPs when the complaining starts "Why fly CO past 100,000 EQMs and/or 120 EQPs?".:D

That's because bloggers are more motivated to do the work that the media believes itself above doing.

I wouldn't go that far, but I consider Stewart to be a pretty decent news source (mixed with obvious comedy/satire elements).

He covers a lot of stories that mainstream media won't touch, because mainstream media is playing to the lowest common denominator (the nascent idiocracy), and thinks all we need/deserve to hear about are Tiger, Michael Jackson, and Anna Nicole Smith.
I primarily cull news stories from Salon, The Guardian Online, and Digg. The Guardian has been a bit :rolleyes: lately, as they're obsessed with the upcoming UK election (they've always been Labour's paper), and futbol. Usually their front-page stuff is good for a broad spectrum of news that isn't generally covered by U.S. sources. I find that once you scroll down past the 1st screen, the NY Times site isn't too bad. I also have a program scrape the NYT and format it for my Kindle (because I'm not going to pay $15/mo to get it delivered wirelessly when I can get it via a USB cable for nothing!) Between that, Teh Beeb, and the Chicago Trib for local news, I'm good. |

Can you imagine being in his seat? The redaction snafu is bad enough, but the complete lack of judgement for post the document on a public government web site is inexcusable.

I agree on the SWUs, i'm going to hit 200k this year and it would have been nice to have some SWUs going in. The question I haven't asked though, if these SWUs get granted in mid-2010, and are good until the end of 2011, when does one get SWUs for 2011? jan 1? |
