I would have loved to sit in on that conversation with Jealous. She let the NAACP off the hook. I hope she let Jealous spin for at least a little while. Maybe she talked him into exploring another source for news. I hope we keep hearing from her…regularly.
By the way…as long as you’re at truthout…be sure to check out Giroux’s essay “States of Paralysis: America’s Surrender to the Spectacle of Terror.”
“The spectacle of terror and fear has become America’s chief source of entertainment, and not only requires a new conception of politics, pedagogy and society; it also raises significant questions about the new media and its centrality to democracy.”
I know…it’s long…but Henry is well worth the time. And hey! They even link their front page to BuzzFlash now. Which makes them like…cool…right?
Fear and terror are cultural constructs deeply embedded in diverse sites and locations in American culture. They now shape the cultural apparatus that haunts our dreams and destroys our political landscape.

I’m lying. I will definitely check that out. It’s a hot topic, fear. Thanks for the link.
