Comments: Food for Thought

The editor is one Ezra Klein. He has two rescue dogs - Calvin Klein and Patsy Klein. It's a good start.

I hate to admit it but I have not been keeping up on things like I used to. My wife is keen on things so keeps me informed enough. Long ago I grew tired of the tabloid circus that is called news over here.

I do still subscribe to the newspaper, but I even cut that back to twice a week because they were always late.

And I think it also comes down to the fact that I just got sick of hearing bad news all the time.

I do see what you mean about their features here that you've linked.
I've saved the Vox link for later perusing. Thanks!

What I don't like about current 'news' reporting is that whatever it is they attempt to politicise it.

It doesn't matter which colour Party is in power, or which Party has promised what to get elected, the final outcome is the same: it's just spun differently.

Checked the Vox link. Yep, definitely un-dumbed down. Now where can we access un-dumbed down News for the UK and Europe?

I think Vox has plenty of UK / European stories Bronchitikat.

It's just not very easy to find things that aren't currently on the front page (unless I've missed something...).
