misnomer: Off to PEI

Off to PEI

News: The United States Government killed Iraqi citizens today, using bombs and famine. 250 pointless deaths per day!

I'm hitchhiking to PEI for a few days. See y'all on Friday.

Kendall Clark lays bare recent criticisms of Ralph Nader in the NYTimes and Washington Times. The NYTimes actually said the following!

"But given the major differences between the prospective Democratic and Republican nominees, there is no driving logic for a third-party candidacy this year, and the public deserves to see the major-party candidates compete on an uncluttered playing field."

Egads! What are they smoking? This reads like an overblown parody of Orwell's 1984. I wonder if any of their readers realize it. :|

About

Misnomer is a weblog about the politics of new and old media, foreign policy, tech, culture, philosophy, and photography. It is maintained by Dru Oja Jay, who edits a newspaper called the Dominion. He lives in Mile End, a neighbourhood of Montréal, Québec, which is, in some ways, a part of Canada, which in turn subsists on occupied native land to which Canada doesn't actually hold the title. He also travels a lot.

The Dominion

The Dominion is a newspaper with the aim of promoting decent journalism, annoying the overwhelmingly right wing Canadian press, and being non-profit and democratically accountable. All at once. This newspaper also has its own weblog, where I post often.

Others

Some other folks who contribute to misnomer from time to time include Kendall Clark, John Haney, Amanda Jernigan, Ola Mork, and Sylvia Nickerson.
