One thing I will continue to do here on Fringe is link to blog-worthy items that I think you should be seeing (I’m kind of like the Mainstream Media that way).
I’ve been appreciative of Chrenkoff’s link roundups in the past because they bring to light many items of note that I would otherwise probably wouldn’t have seen. I’ll raise a glass to his continuing efforts in 2005 to illuminate otherwise underreported Iraq and Afghanistan news.
He begins the year with a bunch of good news from Iraq – Number 18 in his ongoing series. And astonishingly, his observation is correct – since the tsunami hit, Iraq and Afghanistan are gone from the pages of news coverage.
Which leads me to believe the news media either has blinders on, or is simply incapable of properly addressing more than one major news item at a time.
Oh well, that’s what blogs are for, right?
