Libertarian Commentary On The News From RRND
By Nathan A. Barton © 2004

The views and snide comments expressed in here are all the fault of the author, and no one else has to claim them - officially or unofficially! To read more, visit FND or RRND today! Just a short edition to keep everyone hopping!

1) Explosive traces found in Russian plane wreckage
BBC News [UK]
Again, the overwhelming desire will be to declare this another example of terrorism - Russia's own "internal" terrorists, the Chechzens, are the likely people to be blamed.

From time to time I write about the cloacal morality of the media as they go about wrecking civilization and annoying hell out of me. For rhetorical convenience I use "New York" and "Hollywood" as a sort of abbreviation for the news racket and the screen trades.

This column gets a lot of email. Some of it assumes that "New York" and "Hollywood" are code words for "Jews," and excoriates me mightily for not saying what I am assumed to mean. Let me give you a typical example, the subject line being "Fred Sees No Jews in New York and Hollywood." (Read the rest here)
