    Breaking: wealthy WASP men with Jewish son-in-laws "are not racists." Also, birtherism is not racist, since, after all, "a lot of people were not born in America." From Donald Trump's biggest fan at Yale, in conversation with .

    Twenty years ago today, a horrific act of homegrown terrorism occurred - the murder of Barnett Slepian, an abortion provider from Buffalo, who was shot in the kitchen of his home by a "pro-life" zealot.

    Serious question for media scholars like ⁦⁩: should Trump’s laughable claim that terrorists are infiltrating border be debunked or ignored? Debunking draws more attention to them. On other hand, a lot of people believe the bogus claim.

    It's incredible to hear Sontag give 'Illness as Metaphor' as a talk in 1977. She was an original member of the NYIH.

    The latest episode of The Vault features Susan Sontag delivering, "Illness as Metaphor," the James Lecture that would go on to be one of her best-known books, in October 1977.

    Indeed: ‘alter-globalization’ isn’t a monopoly of the left. The far right has its own very dangerous version, which a liberal conventional wisdom has obscured.

    This is excellent.

    Excellent piece, providing the context missing from other coverage & rightly impugning Obama as well as the current administration.

    Curious that this Times piece on Saudi Arabia’s image management crusade focuses on the role of social media trolls but says nothing about what was surely more important - the seduction of opinion-shapers like Dennis Ross & its own Thomas Friedman.

    Though he is wrong about the reasons, Trump is absolutely right that Jeff Sessions has been a disgraceful Attorney General.

    Thomas Friedman is “sickened” by the Trump administration’s response to the Khashoggi saga (and rightly so), but not so sickened as to acknowledge his own role in burnishing MBS’s image as a visionary reformer.
