- An Interesting Day: President Bush’s Movements and Actions on 9/11. Form your own hypotheses... who knew about the 9/11 attacks before they happened?
- Dan Gillmor asked about why, in the wake of Bush’s aircraft carrier landing stunt, the media didn’t find an opportunity to re-raise some long-standing questions about why Bush “went AWOL while ‘serving’ in the Texas Air National Guard in the early 1970s.” Coincidentally (?), the link to Gillmor’s source reference has gone stale in the few days since his weblog entry. Update (15 May): whew, it’s still there; was just a transient problem.
- Plastic: Forget The WMD, We’re Going Home
- MoveOn.org: Stop the FCC. They want to further deregulate media ownership, which can only continue the squelching of dissent. Tim Robbins’ recent speech mentioned Clear Channel, which owns a significant number of radio stations in the US, and the chilling effect they’ve had on at least one musician’s willingess to speak out.
