Remember What It's All About I like this part: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and ...

The troops do not equal the war. If they did equal the war, then blunders and failure would be their fault. And we know that's not true. As we learned, or should have, in Vietnam, politicians can make disastrous choices. Soldiers do their duty despite political bungling.  I believe in the pride, loyalty, initiative, and skill of the American soldier. I believe in his/her call to duty and admire&nb ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website I'm Shocked, SHOCKED! Mad Magazine will publish a 2-page spread of political cartoons--by Pulitzer Prize winners--on the topic of "Why George W. Bush is in Favor of Global Warming." I loved Mad when I was kid. I subscribed for many years--from roughly the 6th through the 9th grades. I'm not going to make any claims about the magazine, having not seen it in years. The closest I've come is flipping nostalgically through the book Mad About the Sixties--exactly the era and issues that I remember best. (I paused afte ...

I feel about CNN the same way some people feel about The Kramer: It's loathsome, yet I can't look away. Question: Who's watching this stuff? (Well, yes, I am. But I know why I'm doing it. Why would anyone else who isn't doing what I'm doing do it?) I'm enjoying getting a peek into a few of the caucuses. But there's no real news yet. What's funny--and making me wish the writers were back on the job so I could be watching Jon Stewart--is watchin ...

How will you cover this? Perhaps as Verne Gay did for Newsday. Step one: Find young people who will claim they get their news from The Daily Show. Avoid anyone who claims something more complicated. What you want are provacative quotes that support your assumption. Step two: Call experts who ...

Steve Kirks had tried to start a bloggers' group some months before I arrived in Springfield (early summer 2004). I made the same attempt when I blew into town because I wanted to make new friends and learn the local culture, of which I was now a part. John Stone, 62, died yesterday of an apparent heart attack. He was the writer of Curbstone Critic. John came to that second meeting and was a stalwart and regular ever since. ...

President Bush finds himself in an interesting political pickle caused in part, in my opinion, by his administration's crusader rhetoric since 9/11. I have no idea if it's a good plan to contract with Dubai Ports World, a state-owned company based in the United Arab Emirates, to run some American ports. A professor here at Missouri State is worried about it. In order to get the American people to agree to attack a country without provocation (spare me, please) one must resort to the kind o ...

When I think of Saturday Night Live, the faces and voices still belong to Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi. So it's not difficult for me to accept the notion that The Daily Show and The Colbert Report have eclipsed the long-running NBC comedy show in political satire. That's been the case for a long time, although SNL did have a moment of glory during the 2000 campaign.Last night--pitch perfect.

I've created a new weblog for the journalism program here called Journalism @ Missouri State. The first topic of discussion will be our panel on the coverage of hurricanes Katrina and Rita slated for 26 October. The plan is to blog live from the event and stream it on The Growl. I'll also offer a podcast after the event. With a little luck, we may also offer video. Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Will this be on the test?... The MSM would never report rumors as facts.[Hang on a minute...I just cracked myself up.]Today in my News Writing & Reporting class I'll be discussing "advanced" interviewing techniques. Part of what makes my presentation "advanced" is the radical idea that reporters should operate with a discipline of verification and be custodians of fact. My job is made more difficult by the reality of professional practice as demonstrated by the initial reporting of Katrina. It's as if I'm teaching some ...

The whole New Yorker-Target thing doesn't bother me. Mixing advertising and editorial certainly does. But that's not what I saw when I plucked my issue out of the mailbox on Friday.I did see, however, a clever ad campaign that taps into the visual style of The New Yorker. Lewis Lazare wasn't amused. He called it "the most jaw-dropping collapse of the so-called sacred wall between editorial and advertising in modern magazine history," which I think is a bit over wrought. I would have preferr ...
