Something other than debates.

So I’m avoiding political blogging and really politics for the next few days for the sake of my sanity. Lehrer’s utter failure to actually engage some substantial portions of domestic policy (such as say, gay rights, the drug war, immigration, women’s health issues) has driven me up the wall and makes me want to throw things…and so I’m reading something else.

Specifically re-reading ESPN’s coverage of the concussion issue in football with their “football at a crossroads” series.

The Poynter Review (media ethics and ombudsman coverage) has an excellent round-up of the coverage here.

I recommend that everyone who watches football check it out.
