A virtual "cloud of witnesses", finding their outraged tongue. Finding ways to tell the Powers that the water is rising fast, on all of us. Wendell Berry quickly comes to mind. And MB, MOT and dozens more. Another, whom I read every Monday morning, is James Howard Kunstler (The Long Emergency), at his Clusterfuck Nation site. He absolutely nails it down on all four corners with this week's rant:

I think a good pamphleteer could turn this into something that could be handed out like moral weapons. Thrust in the faces of the moral idiots who bawl out, "Gee! What izzit yawll want?" Posters and the like. I rarely read such articulate rage. Something to think about below the squiggle.

Wide open prostitution, in public! On May 4th, Marketplace ran the most jaw-dropping piece of journalistic trash I've heard in a long time. Essentially, the program spewed out a song and dance that baldly lied about organic agriculture while making comparisons favorable to GMOs. The push back in the comments section of the article and audio was the strongest, most intelligent and informative I've read in a long, long time, and really did pin back NPR's ears. They earned it!

I don't know how to imbed but it's all here: http://marketplace.publicradio.org/...

As I remarked in the comments:

This article would rival Fox "News". A journalistic embarrassment. From its snarky intro, through the entire assemblage of ad hoc assumptions and erroneous conclusions, I can only sputter in amazement. I wholly concur with the preceding avalanche of criticism.
I can see this piece showing up in Jour. 101 classes across the country -- "What NOT to do!" or "How to ruin your resume!"

You might want to add your own 2c.

I've resisted (until today) looking at any of the (many) articles about the jimmied vote problem. I relented when I saw this:

http://www.truthout.org/docs_04/110804A.shtml

at Truth Out. Yikes! Stolen again? Will Kerry's famous 10,000 Demo lawyers respond, or will we get some mushy, dissipated version of Gored Al, standing before the senate, bringing down the mallet on every member of the Congressional Black Caucus? "No inquiry allowed!"

It's not as though the solutions are not available. Read More

This (by Dave Lindorff)just showed up in Counterpunch. The pics in the Mother Jones link say it all. Once again, the main media are numb.

"Like the dramatic photos of Saturn's rings and moons that he and his teammates have been analyzing and enhancing, the photos of President Bush's back during the three debates, similarly subjected to NASA photo expert Robert Nelson's skillful analysis, offer astonishing revelations. The president is a man wired to the hilt, and obviously so in need of electronic backup during his confrontation with John Kerry that he risked exposure twice even after a controvery had arisen about the bulge in his jacket following the first debate. (For a look at the pictures, go to www.motherjones.com.)"
