Worth the time

Paul Krugman on the trivialization of political news coverage. (John Stewart also gave a perfect example on Thursday’s The Daily Show as he skewered the media’s treatment of Al Sharpton’s speech using the media itself.)
Juan Cole’s Informed Comment is one of several blogs for which I receive RSS feeds. Every day I become more convinced this is one of THE sites for informed and insightful analysis of what’s going on in the Islamic world and what it means to us. I encourage you to check it out. A link has been added to the blogroll.
And, via an ad on Informed Comment, I came across this excellent analysis and review in the New York Review of Books of the Supreme Court’s three detention decisions.
